+As far as I’m concerned, it’s even worse as I’m from monday to friday
+morning on a mobile broadband connection. If you haven’t used that,
+imagine going back to a 56K connection. That’s exactly what I have at

+of a forum is fully loaded (several hundreds of kilobytes at least).

+Forum is a no-go for me, while I can only spend some kilobytes for
+getting the mails sent today with offlineimap,
+Same goes for irc, which is just efficient for instant messaging.
+
+For the above reason, I’m not going to change for a forum which will
+load tons of images and waste my bandwidth. :-)
