Oh, yeah, thicknet was "da bomb"!
(Of course, it's not speed that people want at all. People want cheap and they want it to work, including for streaming [sustained speed]. Having 1gbps doesn't mean crap if you still can't stream a show from everywhere without it continually pausing for buffering--or just plain dying.) |

Of course we want it to work but I don't think consumers necessarily want cheap. I think we want reasonable. The problem is the perception of what's reasonable is clouded by decades of mistrust. |
