Gotta say it is slow for me too. I frequent quite a few different forums and this us by far the slowest.
But hey, we don't pay for it and its a valuable source of info....so....i guess we roll with the punches.
Sometimes , when I'm on here, clicking a different forum heading or topic, means a wait of minutes whilst the page loads. Yet another time and the page loads almost instantly.
Time for DIYNOT to replace it's ageing Commodore 64 with something a bit better.
