Re: That sure is a purty pie chart

I'm not sure I'd call 40.7Mb into a 64Mb file..and still transferring at 2.26MB/sec..

a burst.

Instead..I'd call my 20,000k + service..comcastic.

I disagree. I call it a false sense of security.

Your led to believe it's as fast as that. It helps on downloading some things , but if your like my family , your downloading demos and youtube 24/7. Plus my linux and solaris fetish has me downloading and uploading source code a lot.

And When I get 70 megs into a 400 meg download and it caps in at a meg a second flat , I think why give me false hopes ?

This is one reason I can't wait to get Fios. Once I find a decently stable job or get my business in full swing I am moving to a Fios serviced area. My family uses the net to much to let this "boost" lure me into feeling secure. Show me a 3 meg download that adjusts with network conditions all the way through and then Ill feel a little better.
