New server trouble? Just checking...

The pages are loading MUCH slower for me. The last set-up was lightening quick, while this one takes several times longer.

Am I alone?

No, you're not alone. It has been painfully slow today.

I think the speed of the site now is pathetic - certainly not in keeping with Porsche!

I think I'll buy a Mazda if it continues loading at this rather lathargic pace.

Cheers - I WANT THE OLD SERVER BACK!!!!!!!!!!!

It's so slow, I can't even handle it! Maybe it's always slow with people that have dial -ups, but when your are used to DSL, this is unbearable!

I see that everyone here is wasting bandwidth complaining about it. We're doing the best we can considering that our ISP went out of business and was unplugged on Friday.

Frankly, I'm surprised we were able to get up and running at all. Would you rather I just shut the BBS off? It's what's hogging all the bandwidth.

I would appreciate no more non-constructive complaints.

This is much better, at least as fast, if not faster than it was before. I know you people on the wrong side of the Atlantic haven't woken up yet, but it is quick from here.

I've gotta agree that it's much faster. Sorry for wasting the bandwith, I'm just grateful that it's back!
