i cant get cable as i live in scotland and cable is not available here
but thanks anyway
i will try and find a kind person to send me the iso so i dont have to download it. thats the best i can come up with. will it work??

A kind and patient person. If I do my math correctly, the average ISO download on 56k, at the optimal 56k speed of 5KBps, it would take you 38 hours.

You can get satellite, it's faster than 56k, but slower than cable/DSL. Satellite, from what I understand, is available worldwide, but the signal may be weaker in some areas than others. The other option is ISDN, which is the very primative form of broadband, it comes in two flavors, single line 64k and dual-line 128k. ISDN from what I've read has existed since the 80s, most telephone companies should support it. The final option is "daisy-chaining" several 56k modems together, it won't work if your ISP does not support it. Never done this before, so don't ask me how to do it.

well thanks for the help i think i will keep searching for that kind and patient person.
if u are a kind and patient person please send me the iso at: [email protected]
dont care what game it is
thanks

why don't you try a d/l manager like gozialla or DAP? i use dap and i could d/led iso's, although i have a fast connection (still 56k though). It usally works.

Careful, I know you're working with a digital handicap, but that statement could've been construed as "Asking for ISO's", which could get you banned (if the moderator isn't in a particulary cheerful mood).
