And none of the 'Stick' Devices come with a Port, Chromecast actually
has an Adapter avialabe, I don't know if the firestick does or not.

But read this review which says 2 GB of RAM is limiting even for
web browsing given the demands of modern websites:

And computers seem to be going away, people expect to do all this
stuff on their phones. Of course most bandwidth is now used for
video, and people are hooking up smart TVs and other dedicated
video streaming devices.
I really hate it that people buy a Roku or Apple TV or streaming
stick and connect it via WiFi despite it being 2 feet from their
router. I have a Roku 2 and it’s connected with an Ethernet cable
even though the router is in another room. If people are spending
so much time and money watching video over the Internet and
complaining their Internet isn’t fast enough, why not give it the
best chance and bypass WiFi with a $5 cable?

GOING to expect? Have you not been dealing with customers'
802.11b Linksys routers not pulling 25 meg on their Windows 98 PC?

Kind of scary when you realize SATA-3.0 transfer rate is 6

Android with a low power CPU, on their dodgy WiFi, and
complain if they don't get the advertised Internet speed.

I have mixed feelings on it, I think that if you're pushing the
envelope, then you should pay for it. But as the market meets
demand,
prices should come down. Remember back when 10/100 switches were
$1000? Now, you can get a 24 Port 1G switch with 10G uplinks
for, what,
$400? In another 10 years, 100G will probably be the same.
Pickup a 24
Port 100G switch with 1TB uplinks for $200.
Although at the same time, Throwing more Bandwidth at the
problem just
makes for sloppier code. Average webpage loads are now, what
5-6mb, for
really no more content. Things used to be efficient, as it
was the
programs responsibility for performance, Now it's the clients
responsibility if things are slow (upgrade your PC, upgrade
your internet)

In 1995 they decided that internet should be free and
they'll never stop believing it.

Yeah, until you have to route those packets, rather
than just transporting a beam of light.

It's not un-common to do 100Gpbs as follows:-
Bonding 10x 10G circuits
Bonding a combination of 40G circuits.
providing 100G switched transport is easy.
Having a router, to do 100G transport is not,
Expect to pay approx $100k for a router (loaded ready
to go, on the 2ndary markets)

So... Let's just say, for a minute, that I could
sell Adobe a 100Gbps line.
What would that be priced at?
I think I can do it technically with a pair of
fiber I can get end to end.
Are their LD optics at 100Gbps yet?
Or are we still talking dense wave multiplexing?
