"If we had 100 Mb/s..."

"If we had 100 Mb/s, we’re not going to talk about throttling because there will be plenty of bandwidth."

There will always be applications that can consume more bandwidth than what's already available. This quote is equivalent to:
"640K ought to be enough for anybody." - Bill Gates, 1981

So, aim higher dude. We want next generation, not what everybody already has. Require Gigabit to the home and Petabit or Exabit backbones!

he never said that or you are at the very least misconstruing what he said. like the famous Al Gore invented the internet thing. I wish people wouldn't be sheep and regurgitate crap all the time.

at 100 Mbps one could download 44 GB of data in an hour.

...But then people would have to think about what they say... !

I like this Bill Gates quote...

"The Internet? We are not interested in it."

-- Bill Gates, circa 1993
