50Mbit down / 5Mbit up

believe it or not, this is too fast!

I mostly need fast broadband for downloads, but I start them remotely from either work or my phone.
I can get a TV episode down in ~5mins or a movie within 15mins.
Yet it takes me 45mins to get home from work :shock:
I've even had tv shows download and finish before ad break is done.

I run Arch LInux on my systems, which is a "rolling release". This means every day I get updates, but usually only a few megs; with a new kernel being one exception.
If I was running windows, then yeah the extra speed could help.

btw, "Patch Tuesday" for Microsoft users is coming. They fininally fixed the vulnerability "Duqu" exposed :shock:

Comcast needs to up their upload speeds lol. That's embarrassing for a land line to be beat by a phone!

Well that stinks for me...

All that speed for a mere $39.99 a month plus taxes, so roughly $45. :(
