Yep.

If you junked all those slow DSL lines running 256k connections and went with only 1.5 or higher, cable would probably be smoking DSL.

If you want to truly measure how "good" the USA is see how many 6 meg or higher subs there are.
Like the 6 meg line I was supposed to be getting from Comcast that was, in all actuality, a 2.7 meg line.

And yes, I checked the signal strength, tweaked my system, replaced my router, blah blah blah. All I got out of Comcast was 2.7 meg and a bill for $46 at the end of the month.

My DSL connection is $26/mo, and I get 3 megs down from them (for real!) and better upstream speed.

Same speed for close to half the price, sounds like a deal to me....
