Many people on this list don't qualify, but out among the masses there are countless people who think that their problem is a slow internet connection when they have no real idea whether their system's limiting factor is memory, CPU speed, disk latency, connection bandwidth, or whatever. Any claims of widespread demand for greater speed need to be taken with a grain of salt. |
 2 edits | The service offered by Qwest (specifically the upload) is several orders of magnitude slower than every other broadband carrier it competes with.
The discussion is about the fact that Qwest refuses to upgrade and compete. The claim that people are sheep is mere speculation and executive idiocy.
Qwest is loosing customers by the hundreds of thousands and will continue to do so until they fire their management, or pull their heads out of their collective asses. |
