Re: a waste
Yes but when you need those republican talking points there is no better source than good old FOX news. |

Bo I love the Bush defneders. Not many of you left. 28% approve of Bush. That means 72% don't. FACT. Get over it. ironically most of you have jobs that require you to ask me if I want to supersize my value meal. Wannabe millionaire welfare reciptients are funny. |

And even if people suddenly became obsessed, 100Mb symmetrical is overkill and unrealistic. Dominant is a vague term. Electricity is dominant. Water is dominant. A 100Mb internet ain't. A 100Mb connection maybe overkill for alot of users today, but they said this about broadband back in the days of dial-up. Would you go back to dial-up in this internet age? |

said by gravesg :how many of us would really need our server on 1Gbit ??? The same number of people who don't need more than 1 meg of RAM. At some point we'll need it and it would be nicer to have it now than to not have it when needed. |

So then by that notion Fox then published every AP release ever? Yes I know it's an AP article, that has no bearing. |

This is what I would "think" would happen if we did upgrade the network.
Say now most americans now have 100mbps, we see TV through the internet, we call through the internet, we are doing all these things. The more TV's you have the more streams and the more bandwidth required. So in the end we build this entire network to merge all services such as phone/TV/images and anything that requires huge amounts of bandwidth through one pipe, the last thing we need is the internet being used to deliver power over ethernet. In the end the cable that delivers it all would be a ethernet cable.
Now what?
You can now work at home and your standard telephone becomes a call center's telephone where you can work from the comfort of your home and still be paid a good amount of money to live on while keeping the costs and without the need to build these massive call centers.
The internet creating a global work place? The internet creating a international economy? The end of the US postal service by delivering mail through a tube and packages.
Wireless internet available anywhere, our cellphones now provide calling internationally from advanced network and agreements and the elimination of long distance calling when you can call anyone in the world.
While that might be a fantasy if we where to get 100mbps tomorrow that's what I can think of, and after that it's anyone's guess. |
