China to Top U.S. in Broadband Subscribers
An anonymous reader writes "China already is rapidly approaching the United States as the country with the largest number of broadband subscribers, according to the El Segundo, Calif.-based firm, and by the end of the year, China is expected to have 34 million subscribers, compared to 39 million in the United States. By the end of 2007, China is expected to have 57 million broadband subscribers, compared to 54 million in the United States, with an even wider lead in the years to follow."
I haven't used dial up in years, I can't imagine ever going back anyone here still have dial up
....zombies.
Learning HOW to think is more important than learning WHAT to think.
We already have 5 posts that state the blatently obvious.
Something about what Ford Perfect said comes to mind. If only I could remember it....
test last year, it was the first year they used java, i thought it was really easy, i think that this year is probably harder. I don't really see a why taking the AB is nessesary, most colleges count them almost the same you just have to get a higher score on the A.
That's very similar to Europe. They have a higher percentage of broad band usage than the U.S. They also have a higher population density.
Even more interesting but off topic. Compare the population density map of the US to the 2004 election results.
You know what's pathetic? Presidential elections are basically determined by only a handful of people. Los Angeles and New York City. Their numbers barely tip the scales for California and New York, who subsequently barely tip the scales for the rest of the country. If you left out LA and NYC, conservatives would have won all the elections back to the 1980s by land slides.
We have a thing called the Senate which protects the rights of the smaller states from being trampled upon by the larger states.
What?
Man, the only on-topic post in the last 15 and no mod? Throw me a frickin' bone here.
