I'm going back to my "lovely" home back in Studentland, London on Saturday. So that means my internet access is going to be cut off! Well, we have a Mac at home, but it's crap.
To save me going to the *shudder* library every time I want to come online, does any one know what kind of telephone wire or other software I need to hook up my laptop to the internet?
I'm rubbish at anything technical and it's all so confusing...

Much obliged. Will head off to some sort of computer shop over the next few days!
Jamie - our Mac is online, but I really hate using it, it's confusing, slow and you can't download anything. Might have to make do with it for the next few days though!

May I recommend Freeserve as an ISP? It seems to be about the only one (apart from ntl) that doesn't set a limit on how many hours you can use per month if you're having a pre-paid subscription.

southernangel, it worries me that so many things in your life seem to cause you distress.
Is there anything we can do?
