I live in Vilnius, Lithuania (neighboring Latvia, for those who can't be bothered to look at the map) and pay 22 USD/month for 100 Mbps FTTH, no download caps. For additional 15 USD or so I can get cable TV with HD channels from the same provider.
But who the hell needs cable when torrents download at 70 Mbps or so?

Outsourcing to IBM has lead to a 30 to 60 day lead time.
I work for a major global outsourcing company (90K+ employees) and I sometimes wonder how do our clients put up with this. For example, a simple project (replacing one Wintel FTP server with another) is now taking more than 6 months to execute, and we are buying a complete server where a VMWare instance would be more than sufficient - load on that server is negligible. Entire project is costing maybe 30K $ just in time booked to the client - and that is something I could do in two days - but everybody takes it as "business as usual", including the client.
Makes me wanna go and start my own company, providing better quality services for 1/10th of a price. But then again, I wouldn't be able to claim that I've been in a market for 50 years and will not go bankrupt next year, crisis or no crisis.
I, for one, would be willing to put my money where my mouth is and pay double the amount of normal ticket to flight with _zero_ security checks.
Wow, first use of "I am a moron" I've seen in the field!
Hmm, or it is Mormon?
What's the difference?
