Hm.... Not where I live. :) This post reaches you through an
old 33K6 modem that's the only one I had around that's not a
Windows-only modem. :)
For laptop computers especially you do tend to find yourself in
places where your only way to connect is to inset a phone line..
A lot of non-Western countries do have a lot of wealthy enough
people, but in many places just not the infrastructure you'd
find in Manhattan. :)
(Not a lot of wealthy people measured in percentage of the
population, but in absolute numbers: a whole lot of people. :)
Cheers,
