The theory here is likely that in the majority of cases the wired connection will be substantially faster than the wired connection. Therefore, the assumption is that most users will want best speed and ba-da-bing! Here you go. At least, that makes sense to me. And again, as you stated, in most cases where people have different requirements, they also know how to change the system to match. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com
