Are online gaming casinos fair and honest?

Online Gaming Questions | Live Gambling Answers
Generally speaking, yes. Legitimate casinos don't need to operate crooked games to make a profit. There's enough profit built-in with the house edge and player mistakes. Many casinos advertise that their games are tested for fairness. Some casinos have their payouts audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers or other major accounting firms. But be warned that there are a few dishonest casinos out there.

How can I use my DSL on more than one computer?

AT&T Northeast (SNET) DSL FAQ - dslreports.com
The best way to do this is with a router. The general consensus is that Linksys makes the best routers for this. You can decide to use a wired router if you don't mind wiring through your walls, if your computers are right next to each other, or if you don't mind looking at wires on the floor. You just connect the network cables to the router, and connect the DSL modem into the WAN port in the router, enter your connection information in the router using your browser and it should work.

Why don't you use a better mecha gaming system like Mekton Zeta?

THE TIW FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS LIST
Since TIW is so closely linked to events in the Robotech TV series, it doesn't make sense to move to a different RPG system at this time. All the older mecha, characters, and locations that may pop up in a TIW adventure have already been covered by Palladium; why repeat that work? If I started using Mekton Zeta or a similar system for TIW I'd have to translate everything from Robotech into the new system, and even I'm not that ambitious right this moment. ^_^ That's part of the story.
