I'm on your train.. Stealing your internetz


Im on my way home (Via london), I booted my mac up and it popped up with a little message "Do you want to connect to wireless network 'Nattrain wireless' accept?" well of course i do, so now im on a train, on the internet, which is pretty awesome if you ask me, its not terribly quick ( lag of 2000 on wow) but it does the job and its novel begin on a train and the internet. With the proliferation of wi-fi the internet and therfore infomation is becoming more and more moblie, but there is a certain satifcation to be had in the english countryside hurtling pass me at 100 miles an hour as i check my email or kill trolls. Anyway i thought while i was on the train i would review it. 

Train ( National Express.. i think)
  
I will review the train in the following aspects , put forward by the ICITR (International Council of Internet Train Reviewers) 1) Comfort 2) Speed 3) Scenery 4) L337 H4XX0RZ SKILZ.
1) Comfort. Well the train seems a little old, but i think the seats are new, because there really wuite comfortable, there sort of slightly bucketed so whilst they dont hug the contours of my body the gentley hold it, like im sitting in the palm of a giant. Leg rooms not great thou, and im traveling backward which i dont enjoy, so it will have to be marked down. 7/10

2) Speed. 2 1/2 hours to london i think, which isnt bad , i think im on the east coast main line and there arnt many stops (4) so pretty good, in fact now i take the time to look out the window we are going pretty quick and there hasn't been any delay yet. On the other hand the french have trains that can go 400 mph so this isn't really much. 8/10

3) Sencery, well its flat, its boring , its fields, its England. England does seem incredibly dull, endless green followed by the same style housing development. Maybe its just the midlands, but it does inspire me at all. 2/10

4)L337 H4XX0rZ SKILZz. Well it has the internet, thats pretty awesome. 9/10

Final Score : 6.5, good but Unremarkable Train
