Stop the BS...

As a resident of Bergen County, NJ (about 8 miles from NYC also, and I know where that picture was taken by the author), I'd just like to say that we definitely ARE much better off than others when it comes to broadband... The vast majority of this county received FIOS before the rest of NJ... I have two primary options here... 20/5 or 30/5 from Cablevision or 10/2, 20/5, 30/5 or 50/20 from Verizon FIOS... If you live in this county and you're bitching about broadband options, then you need a serious reality check. DSL sucks here... True... But I don't know anyone else who uses DSL anymore here... Something like 80% of the people I knew had OOL cable service prior to get FIOS when DSL was the only option... The best DSL Verizon can offer here is 768/128... I got about ~384/128 out of that line when I tried it a few years ago... But FIOS blows all the competition out of the water.

Re: Stop the BS...

Thumbs up to that. NY is one of the "best connected" states in the union.
