DSL Rising

Posted by Hemos on from the got-to-keep-on-rising dept.

Steve wrote to us with an article about the rise of DSL throughout the world. What I find most interesting is the discussion about cable vs. DSL; in the United States cable is winning, but globally, DSL holds the cake.

  1. I bet your GRANDFATHER'S reception is GREAT NOW!!! by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    You liberal commie whores have always been twisted like that. I bet you were glad when the towers fell, because I'm sure the better reception is really going to hurt those evil capitalist cable companies.

    You wanted the towers to fall, didn't you pinko?

    I bet the only reason you bitch about the Partiot Act and Department of Homeland Security is so you and your Al Quada friends can blow everything else up!

    Information doesn't want to be free, it wants to be paid, MOTHER FUCKER!

    Sincerly,

  2. Telco = STUPID by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    DSL is a better technology...the reason cable is winning is because the US phone companies are morons. We all have cable in our homes already so we can get high speed access in that manner but the Telcos aren't willing to pony up and compete. Oh well guess I'll stick with my T3 for now. ;-) It's a crap hole of an apartment but why would I go anywhere else? =)

  3. Re:DSL == LSD by Graff · · Score: 2, Flamebait
    For those of you who noticed that the submitter is dyslexic, the article is really about LSD, not DSL.

    Ahh, ok. I thought he really meant LDS (the Mormons). I mean, I know that they have the whole polygamy thing going on but I would have bet that more people liked cable than they liked Joseph Smith.
