Re: HAH

The same, no as cable is node based. But congestion on a network, yes it can happen regardless of transport.

No matter how they are doing it, if they see people abusing it, especially of all you "online backeruppers, Linux Distro distributers, and daily machine rebuild guys that have to download patches all the time", they will eventually do something as it still cost them.

So yes, you guys that will take all you can as long as you can enjoy your gluttony now.

Sure, congestion can happen on any network. Even with seriously heavy use, I think it would be really hard (maybe even impossible) for a single subscriber to severly disrupt service for other subscribers on a pure fiber network like what happens on a hybrid cable network.

Keep in mind, cost isn't the reason Comcast has given over the years for implementing the cap. Then again, how much is a liar's word worth?

* still puzzled about why heavy users are call abusers *
