Yeah, I can give you that I guess......it would be hard to figure out something that would bog down a 10GbE line, probably nothing short of real-time crystal-clear video-encoding over the Net, lol. as far as the 1 GbE line is concerned, leasing it would be interesting, lol. But yeah, I see what you're saying, except I have one hell of a bottleneck on my system: the PC, roflmao :rolleyes:

I have a 3 Mbps line and it's fast even over this POS computer, but I got a chance to test it on just an Athlon XP 3200+ Barton setup (what I built for my buddy this past summer), and it streamed video like hell.....my jaw dropped when I realized what a faster computer could do for the Net, especially over high-speed cable (you can pump all the "water" you want into a garden hose, but if it's kinked you're being counter-productive, right?! Thus is the reason I want to see what an X2 3800+ setup can do, thus the reason why I'm working out a way around my bills to build the system, lol
