150 Mbit/s DSL.

surstrmming writes "German company Infineon have released their new QAM VDSL Plus chips, providing 150 Mbit/s data rates over ordinary copper wire." Note that that kinda throughput is at the 1000 feet mark... but the chip can still serve up 4mbps even at 13,000 feet.

Search the parent's 'pasted' text for "Rob Malda had".

Also, who would mod up such a horrible formatting, even if they didn't realize it was a troll?

I have Cable from Shaw in Calgary, and I often get 650KB(byte, not bit)/sec downloads... You poor bastards with ~150K down... how do you live with it???
We just take solace in the fact that your provider is underselling their bandwidth and will probably be going out of business soon anyway. WTF do you download at 650KB/s?? Porn? Illegal mp3's and divx movies? There really are no legitimate purposes for that kind of bandwidth for 99% of the users other than piracy.
