I took Hathway internet connection—64kbps

My laptop is in a mess: name any virus, it has it. On top of that it just survived a fall from my shelf to the floor—the corner is dented. But thank god it is still working.

(It just shows how careless and reckless I have become.)

Earlier I used to care so much about it, that many of my friends have said that it looks new. I had installed antivirus and that too after much research on which is the best one, never allowed any of my friends to plug in their pendrives, unless I knew that he also was using antivirus..

But over the few months I have treated my laptop very roughly…

Yesterday I took internet connection and I’m in love with my laptop again… doesn’t mean that i’m hooked to the internet all the time…but at least the internet cable is hooked to it 24x7. It feels like my laptop has got a new lease of life. Just seeing the internet cable is very reassuring for me.

I took Hathway 64kbps connection—500 rupees per month and 700 rupees security deposit… I didn’t think whether it was a good deal or not...Jim told that I could have paid 200 rupees more and taken an airtel 256kbps…but I Amit told airtel 256kbps is 900 rupees…and on top of that I will have to show a salary slip or pan card or something of the sort which I don’t have..Anyway I didn’t want waste too much time mulling and hearing opinions or searching for the real deal. I wanted a connection and a cheap connection…I took it…with the hope that I can change it anytime i find out about the ‘real deal.’

The Hathway guy also provides cable here in my paying guest…so the documentation drooling were also minimal.
