Re: Holy hell....

I think lots of DSL reports should take a geography lesson.
90 % of the US population lives in very dense urban centers (Boston to DC corridor), pretty much the same thing SFO to LAX (a little bit less dense.)
The latency of deploying FTTH in the US and CANADA (Canada has 3 major cities where 50 % of the pop lives) has more to do with laziness, greed and inexisting gov regulations....

Go get a geography class !

I wouldn't call the Central Valley even close to "dense"...

Well I dunno... In my travels... I've met several people there that I think "Dense" would describe nicely

Of course, I've met a lot of nice people there too. In fact, I'd say that pretty much rings true all over the US.

@teksavvy.com		 But Canada would charge you more than what the average person earns in a year. Oh yes, and those nasty caps other countries don't have.
