redViper: How exactly would you hook up that cable internet? You are stranded, on a dessert island. If there were people there that could have cable internet… then you wouldn’t be stranded because you could always call and let people know what happened 😉 And on that note, if you had internet access on this magical stranded island YOU COULD STILL CONTACT PEOPLE TO LET THEM KNOW WHERE YOU ARE!!! LOL… so yeah, there are some flaws in that plan :beam: As for me… Food and water. I don’t mind being alone (I am a loner most of the time), and I am too lazy to get my own food and water, so I would rather have some ready for me 😉 ---

Has anyone thought about the fact that having a comp and an internet connection hardly qualifies as being stranded? If I were to be “stranded” on a island, I’d like to have my fiance with me. ---
