1. Comment - Report: DSL to Overtake Cable Internet

   (Jun 20, 2006 - 1:14 PM)

   RIJP: You don't know what you are talking about.
   
   I have comcast basic cable. A quick visit to: http://www.comcast.com/B...tails/Slot99PageOne.asp and you too can see that basic cable is still available.
   
   In addition, I pay $65 for a full 8Mbit line and basic cable. In addition I consistantly pull right at 1MB per second through my web-browser. Yes, that is right, I pull a FULL 8Mbit. I originally had 6Mb for $55 (after taxes), but I wanted the additional 2Mb for the $10 more per month (inclues a greater upload speed).
   
   I use this connection to rsync my home computers to a remote location for backup purposes.
   
   At this point, the only way I would switch is if I could get some glass Fiber to the house and do away with all the copper (I hate lightning).
