16,000 CWRU Computers Getting Gigabit Ethernet

lowlypeon writes "In a move that makes going back to college more tempting than usual, Case Western is installing fiber connections in 16,000 computers over the next year to give students a 1 gigabit per second Ethernet connection. Administrators aren't sure what anybody needs that kind of bandwidth for yet, but they are curious to see how it gets used."

    News Flash: nobody cares. As an alumni, I can assure you that in the real world, the name of our mutual alma mater is just too damn big. So chill.

    Unless you have multiple personalities, I suggest you're only an alumnus (or alumna, depending on gender). alumni is plural.
