Title: Slow as dial-up-- I\'m partying like it\'s 1999!
I had been a customer of the previous Virgin.net service since 1999 and generally found it to be quick, reliable and perfect for all of my browsing and gaming needs. I was therefore very taken aback by the sheer awfulness of the \'upgrade\' I got following the rebranding to Virgin Media.
