Re: What I find funny

Work on xDSL was occuring even then. It is 54Mb (OC1). It can even go over copper if the copper is only 1000'.

So at 1000' for 54Mbps, it would take how much money to provide this solution for 50% of the population? How much of the pop. can be served by ADSL at 15,000 feet for 384k service?

And, how much was fiber and its related equipment back then? Then to provide this service to residents at a residentially affordable rate?

Like I said, I wonder what the wording really was...

I agree with you, I believe it was Bruce Gordon one of the exec's from Verizon that said, when the agreement was done with PA, it was the simple fact of having their systems ready for those speeds & their response to that was the customer can have it if they want it! Like you, I wonder what the wording was.
