Re: I remember when Comcast did the same thing..... I work with plenty of people with engineering degrees, who have been in the field for years, have doctorates, and are extremely smart, and have no clue what the difference between last-mile fiber and core fiber is.

Not everyone grew up with technology, or spends their free time researching it. And for the most part people don't care. All most people care is that they can turn on their computer, open a web browser, go to google and surf.
Maybe do some IMing or work from home.
But most people don't really care.
Around where I live the choice is between cable and DSL. Cable is available up to 30Mbps but a lot of people are on 5-10Mbps DSL. It is good enough for them. |

Not everyone grew up with technology, or spends their free time researching it. Not all engineers have degrees in tangible objects or even useful fields. Tradesmen and technicians need the rubber stamp of an engineer. |

Who Cares Amen to that. Who cares as long as it works. This is a typical story as of late here at Broadband. I think they wake up some days and decide lets bash some companies. Leaving a bad taste in my mouth here. I mean enough is enough. |

I guess mainframes and time-sharing weren't "technology". |
