If you want to talk about real world deployments, read http://www.infomaticsonline.co.uk/vnunet/news/2152621/asia-moves-beyond-broadband?page=2 which says "Many Japanese urban residents, for example, have enjoyed $50 per month 100Mbps fibre connections for several years." I don't have cable internet myself, but I doubt you personally would be responsible for it if I did (but it's nice to know your level of modesty, are your related to Al Gore?). Also try getting your ISP to advertise the average speed as opposed to peak theoretical throughput, I've yet to come accross an ISP salesman that says "We can offer you a connection which averages 23MB/s!!!!". Now lets get back to talking about HL2.... (P.S. If you're going to post your business card, why not post the current one, not one where the URL resolves to a website that's now a link site offering "The Best Real Estate Sources on the Web", and can be easily faked.) > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [hlds] Feature request: > sv_serverdomain> To: [email protected]> Date: Tue, 23 Jan 2007 > 00:29:15 -0800> > I don't know, Nick...> > http://moike.net/proof.jpg> > > ...you tell me.> > It's no small thanks to me back in the early 90's that you > -have- cable internet.> > 100mb my ass.
