How much speed do you need?
I only have a few vices. No drinking or gambling for me. I do like a good cigar, but my passion is fast cars and motorcycles.
Do you think 6 motorcycles and 4 cars is enough? Ha!
One of my rockets is a Yamaha VMax, 145 horsepower V4, and 140 MPH in the quarter mile. Is that fast enough? Yeah, I think so.
How much speed do you need to your house? Is 2.4 gb/s GPON with 1×32 splitters delivering (75mb/s) per house fast enough?
We have all been fooled before, what you say? DS3?
The only thing I know for sure is that we always under estimate.
What speed we need will be determined by the services we want. How many HD channels, DVRs, 3D HD, internet gaming? (Holograms, teleportation, ha, just kidding)
Mark my words: a gig is coming to your house. When? Well that’s another question.
