Re: Sick of these?
said by gatorkram  :
Is anyone else sick of hearing about these "speed" records? What good is it doing anyone? I don't see my speeds getting faster, and cheaper from this, does anyone else?
Seems to me, there is lots of money out there in the world, and no ons is using it to make the internet better and faster for everyone else. Maybe I am missing something?
Yea...I TOTALLY agree...what good is all this if im still stuck on 1.5/256 for $30 a month |

I agree totally. It is good that speeds are increasing and people make a note of it, but it doesn't appply to me right now. I don't even have a gigabet network! I'm still 10/100  Maybe someday this technology will apply to me, but as of right now, I don't even have what is available...
And cost, how much will something like this cost for the home user? Probably alot more than what the Sheriff's department pays me

To all of you out there, your are still lucky. Just check this out. Here in Aruba (One happy island) I have to pay US$350 for 1Mb/256 Dsl to my local ISP SETARNET (»www.setardsl.aw) (Monopoly). Anyone out there interested to bring other companies to the island for some competition? |
