Man, many of you must have LOTS of time on your hands to watch this site if every entry takes as ling to load as the ones posted here do!

I have a fast PC with a DSL connection and it took over 10 minutes to buffer that Paul Shaffer organ deal. Do all the Yoiu Tube things take this long, or is it something at my house ?

I'd want to hurt somebody if I had to wait for every little video to load. I just don;t have that kind of patience ..... or time.

Your thoughts?

It loads pretty fast here I wouldn't have that kind of patience either.
Sometimes it's slow when it is I go away and try later or the next day.

Here's a quick tip Uncle Dave:
When you encounter a YouTube link, open it up in a new window, wait for it to load the page completely and and start buffering (maybe 15 sec) and then simply set the video volume slider to zero so it won't bother you, and return to whatever you were doing in other windows....
after reading some other comments on Synthzone, return to the video window and click and replay, the whole thing will be buffered and you will watch this without nerve cracking delays.
Sometimes i open 3-4 separate youTube pages like that and continue my work...after some minutes, all the videos are loaded, and it's showtime.

Utube videos load within seconds on my PC. Time to get rid of the Commodore, Dave?
