| Perspective Serial ATA hard drives top out at 35-40MB/sec in IO; that's 280-320mbps. Even if you had GigE access to your home, the average user couldn't push that kind of IO unless they had a hardware RAID10 array using SCSI drives.
What application is he proposing that would require GigE access to the home? |

In 20 years it will also be significantly cheaper to deliver GigE access to the home, provided that's still the access method of choice. That's not a good reason to spend an insane amount of money to deliver GigE edge connectivity today. |
