Copper can work just fine. Fiber isn't the be all and end all.
True, but the bandwidth limits of fiber are only hobbled, at this time, by the electronics on either end. Various physical laws make pushing extremely high speeds over long distance runs of unshielded twisted pair virtually impossible. You can at this moment easily push a 10GB data stream over a 10km fiber run. You cannot do the same with UTP.

Alexandria, VA		 I'm not disputing that one bit. And I don't know of any company attempting to push 10 Gbps over a 10 Km run of copper.
