From microsoft.com. Has been the first chance I've had to download from a site with good bandwidth with my upgraded SBC DSL.

Provided one isn't into porn, what are some good ways to utilize mammoth download speed like this? Waiting another day for my new motherboard to arrive before I can play some online games.

Mammoth? hehe I downloaded that guys 12.1 mb badger video in 1 second. 10mbit campus networks are awesome!

But still nice compared to my 600kb cable conn back home, so :beer: and happy pirating!

What SBC DSL package you use?

I have the expert package for 5 Mbps download and 512kbps upload. I don't think there is one for 20~30Mbps which is what your connection speed seem to indicate.

there is no way a 10mbit connection can get a 12.2 mb file in one second. 10mbit = 1.25megabyte != 12.2

Cripes that's fast! How much do you guys pay for those speeds? I could double my dl for $10 more, but I just don't see it right now.

I'm paying $5 less for this than I was paying for the standard DSL.

Heh, actually I am, but that's got nothing to do with the school. CU is like 25,000 undergrads, and has a huge engineering dept. but that's only about 5,000 undergrads.

Oh no I got it, I'm just not worried. Regardless of what people say, I'll play my cards as I'm dealt them, I'm not scared off by competition in a field I like.

"That's our spirit of service in action...........owwww!!"
