Re: Let them bet their jobs on it

Well, take it like this. The internet itself is fine. No where near close to being overloaded (proven by the Obama Inauguration day when internet usage peaked). The last mile, sure I can see why they're saying this when it comes down to that (looking at non-DOCSIS 3.0 networks). But the way they're making it sound is quite iffy. If the internet was having brownouts, I would have noticed something up with both of my connections by now.

I don't even agree with the last mile argument. The technology is out there where the last mile would not be an issue. The issue is that corporations are too cheap and too worried about their bottom line to make the last mile a non-issue.
