Heres a tidbit for the thread picked off the QWST thread:
Explosive DSL Growth Outpacing Broadband Cable
Installation of Digital Subscriber Lines grew 300 percent in the United States for
the first half of 1999, surging well beyond industry analysts' projections,
according to data just released by TeleChoice. During the same time frame,
cable modem installations grew at the much slower pace of 60 percent, based
on 800,000 cable modems in service in the U.S. reported by industry analysts in
July 1999. "While cable modem service maintains a healthy lead, DSL is
growing at a significantly faster pace and catching up rapidly," said Laurie
Falconer, DSL analyst at TeleChoice, a telecommunications consulting firm that
monitors trends in broadband access.
