    But transferring a 20mb file to Amazon would take far less time than using Fedex, gotta look at the glass half full.


    Anyway, 100mbps fiber is just the beginning, this is only happening because companies are able to get away with this stuff in America, but in the future, (3-5 years max) we'll all be getting at least 1GBPS connections, especially when everyone would be hooked up to fiber.


    gotta love obama and friends!

    So for a terrabyte of data, fedex overnight would be 11GB/s.

    Well, it may work for Amazon, but it sure doesn't work for YOU dips**ts. I was so tired of piss-poor, snail-slow DSL service, I took the time to send you guys hundreds of neatly-typed comments in a nice, medium-sized cardboard box--even paid extra sending it Fedex Overnight. That was WEEKS ago, guys, and you STILL have not posted any of those bon mots. Tracking says you got it, signed for by some B. Lam--what, does "B" stand for "Bored and can't be Bothered with shit"?


    C'mon, guys, get your act together. Seriously.
