| Pick the lesser of two evils... Hey, ye Canandian Shaw broadband users -- don't like the new throttling on your bandwidth? Your BitTorrents (illegal or otherwise) slow?
You can choose to move to America and get Comcast or SBC Yahoo! DSL. Oh...wait. I seriously doubt there are that many Canadians who want to move into the US after Tuesday, what with Bush winning the election.
Hmmm...looks like you'll have to make a choice between the lesser of two evils. HAHAHAHAHAHA!

TELUS | There's more to an ISP than raw speed.
More important than ever? Perhaps.
In the GVRD [Regional District], there are two major service providers.
Shaw. Cable.
Telus. Telephony.
If you cannot get service with one major carrier, you'll probably default to the other carrier.
There is no Comcast/SBC/RoadRunner/OptimumOnline/Cox/Adelphia/Charter.....
I know I'm generalizing, but kids want their media, and they choose Shaw.
In fact, Shaw targetted this commercials with youth saying, "I can download faster.....etcetra....."
Of course, Cable did premier first [Rogers/Shaw - @Home/Wave]
Shaw has an advantage over Telus, and that is speed [Throughput].....Oh wait.....
That could also read, "Shaw had an advantage over Telus" |
Tell Shaw to kiss your big fat booty and to get a new company name!
