Found this interesting image in the netlink files and it seems to show a part of sega.com that was not archived, it would be cool (but unrealistic) for dan to bring this back

Well the way i have my files layed out to mod planet web ver 3 is the file called cd and inside that is a folder called netlink and inside that folder the file is called BROWS.gif, these are the only other "Archived" or interesting pictures in the files. Tempted to look through the other web browsers to see what on them.

Had some great matches with Segafan during what could be peak internet usage times.

Guide will certianly be updated soon. Biggest changes Rtp .020 and Bufferbloat fix!

We had 0 erros 1 packet lost on most of our games. Rally ran near flawless, rarely ever any brief hiccups.

Bomberman certianly plays smoother than before too.

Still not quite analog phone quality but getting closer!

Great to see how far this has come since the initial idea. Still looking for a decent priced Netlink...
