Well, my experience isn't as bad as Ravens, I had it installed a couple weeks ago and I guess my satellite (Direct Way) works almost as well as they claimed it to. The latency is kinda a pain in the ass, especially when i'm constantly uploading and updating. Also the latency is bad for gaming, say goodbye to daily frag-fests. It goes out every once and a while, sometimes when it's storming out, but not all the time. Once you get past the few seconds of latency while it's connecting to a site, it's pretty fast, just as fast as DSL or Cable. My OS is XP and every once and a while i get a small error, doesn't really effect anything though, just a matter of closing the error window. I would prefer dsl or cable any day over this satellite, but this is what i'm stuck with for the time being.. at $100/mo ;-P

BTW, anyone know how to setup a LAN with satellite, i'd like to get a few more of my computers online...
