I heard it used as a blanket term for all kinds of PC slowdowns. Personally, I just use it as Internet latency.

Btw, love the sig! Dr. Strangelove is a great movie. That quote is classic.

Thanks, Peter Dellers did such an awesome job in that movie.

Jet lag seems well defined. Lag was a word before all this so this is really just how it's being used now. I guess what actually ticks me off is when people complain of lag but don't understand whether it's their computer or latency.
