10. It doesn't take minutes to build the picture when you change TV channels.

 

9. When was the last time you tuned in to "Melrose Place" and got a "Error 404" message? 

 

8. There are fewer grating color schemes on TV--even on MTV. 

 

7. The family never argues over which Web site to visit this evening. 

 

6. A remote control has fewer buttons than a keyboard. 

 

5. Even the worst TV shows never excuse themselves with an "Under Construction" sign. 

 

4. Seinfeld never slows down when a lot of people tune in. 

 

3. You just can't find those cool Health Rider infomercials on the Web. 

 

2. Set-top boxes don't beep and whine when you hook up to HBO. 

 

1. You can't surf the Web from a couch with a beer in one hand and Doritos in the other.
