Jon,

<<A recent article referred to San Diego Roadrunner customers getting "14.4 performance".>>

What article? Is Roadrunner a telco return path system?

<<One of the reasons why @Home needs cash is because they HAVE spent quite a
bit of money on an inrastructure that they *don't* really need at this point.
However, doing so gives them greater assurance of being able to handle the load
when more customers come on board.>>

If the systems are scalable then latecomers shouldn't suffer a disadvantage.

RE: Supposed advantages of @Home
This is not confirmed by anecdotal accounts of users of other systems who, from all accounts I have read, have praised them highly. Of course, I don't know of any trials comparing one to the other.
