In Your Face Dutchys(Sweden.....rest of Europe)

CABLE operator NTL is to offer a broadband service 20 times faster than anything available in the UK today.

Keith Monserrat, NTL's director of policy, said the company's fibre-based network is capable of delivering internet speeds many times faster than BT's older copper-wire network.

"Fibre can carry up to one gigabit," he said. "It will be relatively straightforward for NTL to provide speeds of at least 100 megabytes per second across its entire network. By contrast, BT's planned 21st Century network will not be able to deliver speeds above 10 megabytes."

Although NTL will not reveal the timing of the launch of its 100-megabyte service, Monserrat said NTL customers could expect to be offered the service "in the not too distant future".

what? I've had 8Mbit for years Tremsy, years. anything less than 4mbit is slow, antiquated perhaps even stone-aged!!
in contrast, by the time you finally get your paltry 100Mbit line, I shall be having my pr0n beamed directly into my mind by a 4000 gigabit neurohologenic projector that every Dutchy will get free at birth

Well that just about says it all for me, fibre can carry up to 1 gigabit? Fucksake, don't these company's have any real technical staff on the books?

damn, that must mean my neurohologenic projector is lies too

What's the bet they still keep the upload speed the same

Fucks sake, talk about penis extension......

Ive got my 512 and after too many years in the 56k wilderness, Im STILL happy with my 1/2mb.

1gb....PFFT, who needs it. Face it Trem, all it means is that people will be able to leech films quicker from BT sites.. :touch:

Since I live in an NTL area and they still don't offer broadband at all in this area, because the network's so antiquated, you'll forgive me if I don't get excited about this

The JANET connection I had 4-5 years ago shat on that. Then everyone started using it and it went shit and they blocked half of it. Fucking upper class twits coming to my uni to see the future King of the UK. *****, the lot of them. Turned a good uni into a cosmopolitain arse licking paradise. Now do you see why I turned to drugs?

 

[nath]

Even when you were on JANET and had 15ms pings, I still kicked your arse at RA2

 

[Bodhi]

Lies. That was at a LAN and I was drunk at the time. If I remember correctly it was just before fugee asked if you were of portly stature

 

[nath]

Well of course I kicked your arse there too. As I recall, I was pretty fuxxored too, so you can't use that excuse

 

[Bodhi]

But but but I was distracted. I thought Usul smiled when we were playing.
