Re: I remember when Comcast did the same thing..... Not to flame, but those are not sustained speeds from Comcast. That's readyboost. Comcast will give you nice speeds on a short speed test, but it's not happening on larger downloads.
To be fair, you aren't going to get those download speeds from most places anyway and readyboost sure makes your normal surfing faster. Comcast customers seem to like it.
Point is, if Verizon were available in your area it is the better choice and Comcast knows it. You may be happy with the inferior technology, but that doesn't make cable honest for pretending they're the same. Sure price and bandwidth caps should be part of the decision between ISPs, but cable knows they have the inferior technology regardless. |
