| I have to wonder... If you're able to drop $30k right now on internet access, are you really worried about the future price? Take that money, invest it and you'll make more money than you'll save.
Even at $50/month, that's 50 years! (yes I know price will go up and it'll be less than 50 years, but still).

I have kid and that would be a great start toward a college education.
Then again if you have that much cash to piss away, you probably not worried about it. | |

| AOL Didn't AOL have a "FREE Dial-Up" for life promotion too. I think the winning bid was $14,000.
Of course I'm kidding. How extremely silly does that seem now as a comparison. How stupid would you feel had you done that.
I think a lot of the bids now are people in the know, knowing they are not forced to pay if they do "win". | |

Look at the cool IM I got from this person:
You're also an idiot. If you think that it's not Charter's fault you're fucking stupid. Charter PAYS wvfiber for bandwidth. Charter oversells the bandwidth to their customers. IT IS THEIR FAULT FOR HIGH LATENCY. If you think otherwise you're fucking retarded. I know you're old as fuck but please, get some knowledge.

| Just got it in Socal Inland Empire--Hesperia
Just called up today, and CSR Travis said, "sure, I can check for you but I'm pretty sure it's no---oh wait, looks like it is available!"
The way he described the rate structure for my areas is as follows:
$29 for 5mb
$39 for 10mb
$49 for 16mb
That's about far, I imagine. I have been waiting for this since November!
Here's a midday speedtest:

latency on an edge router is NOT ISP's fault. it is true ISP's buy bandwidth from major telco's, et al...but, ISP's DO NOT tell the telco's how to route the bandwidth or how to allocate it....you are the idiot dude. | |
