Re: Good... said by digitalfreak:If that were the case, then why are all these cable co's trying to lead consumers to believe they are using nothing but fiber in their networks? The reason behind this is almost everyone knows fiber is "Super Fast", so they want to market their product as "Fiber Optic Fast", when in reality no fiber is actually reaching the house. It's a marketing ploy, which makes most engineers bang their head against the wall due to utter stupidity from corporate HQ.
Almost like Qwest saying their 12 and 20mbps DSL service is "Fiber Optic Fast Internet". Bullsh*t. Fiber IS Fiber.. Fiber IS NOT Copper. If you can shove a beam of light through a copper wire, then I'd be really impressed.
