Hrmm, I don't see any sort of limits even in the fine print on my plan.
Narf.
DOCSIS 3.0 does pretty much -precisely- that, at a per home passed cost of between 20 and 100 (depending on the source you read).
So, umm, yeah. In this case, it actually DOES work that way.
Amazing.
Hi. Welcome to San Antonio (Or Austin. Or Dallas. Or Houston...)
Our options are: TWC, MAYBE Grande Cable (if you're far enough into the sticks), DSL (if you're close enough) or UVerse (If they've passed your place).
So, umm, yeah.
Go fuck yourself. You live in pretty much the only major metro where you have a choice. Congrats. Want the other 295mil Americans to crowd into Seattle?
Exactly.
Give me a rate at a nickle, or a dime, or hell, even a quarter a gig, and I'd be fine.
50GB/mo? At a quarter? $12.50.
Fuck, make it $.50/GB. $25/mo. Regardless - true metered would be 'acceptable'. Caps are nothing but money grubbing bullshit.
And yes. I'm drunk. Bite me.
Uuuh.
Get her name right, moron.
MEGAN Fox.

"some geek"?
Anand has been around, reviewing hardware, for close to 10 years now. He is, rightfully so, considered an expert in hardware usage, performance tuning and over systems construction.
There are others out there with similar cachet.
He is far, FAR from just being "some geek".
That's because there are no 'sane' solutions to it.
Overpopulation really only has one solution. And we're too moral to actually consider it.
And I find that that's a good thing.
Sounds like you might have a malpractice case there.
Probably not worth pursing, but all the same...
And you know that, how?
Most transplant surgeries -start- in the mid-100k range. Where the hell do you get your 'data' that that sort of thing is "only" $10k?
Continuing, it is illegal in most states to not have auto insurance. If you are driving un-insured, you're an asshat and part of the problem.
Second, and more personally, my hospital bill from being run over by a pickup truck was over $30,000. I required 2 operations to put one of my legs back together, and spent 4 days in the trauma center. That's also not counting the post-release physical therapy and checkup appointments. Thanks to insurance, I was out my $500 deductible and a couple $10 copays, -total-.
3. I have a dental bill for $1200 that I'm responsible for all of $90 thanks to the piddling amount per month that I'm paying for Dental insurance.
In essence - you're either a complete tool and a moron, or you're 21 and still think you're indestructible.
In either event - you're an idiot.
Of course, there are all sorts of 'hosted' email products where you don't even have to look at Zimbra - you can pay someone else to worry about the server side headaches - and thousands of businesses are doing exactly that - IT should be about enabling companies to focus on their 'core' business, not about hacking a configuration file in order to get mail working properly for the new guy that is insisting on using his iPhone 3g v2...
Because it will hurt more, you twit!
Hackers of the world, unite!
