| Cable speeds
quote:
At a cost of $28.95 per month for residential service and $39.95 per month for commercial service at a minimum speed of 300Kbit/sec. to and from the Internet, Manassas' BPL service compares favorably to the $42.95 that Comcast Corp. charges cable-modem customers who also subscribe to its cable television services. Cable throughput is typically 600Kbit to 800Kbit/sec. from the Internet to the subscriber and 128Kbit to 256Kbit/sec. to the Internet.
Isnt comcast much faster than 300kbit, justifying the price for most? And I didnt think there were man places where cable was under 1mbit on the download side. |

Kilobits of kilobytes? You would have to be in a pretty crappy situation before you'd see less than 800kbps routinely from Comcast.

Columbus, OH | I agree, I'm thinking someone's got their KB's and Kb's mixed up or something, that makes no sense at all.
