<With Cable a major LIMITING factor is the local loop, since 80% of it is one way>

You must have missed my qualification in discussing only those markets where *2way* cable goes up against ADSL.

<I love to go into detail on throughput speeds I achieved at ProTech
Bookstore in Irving with the Overture 8 Running at 4MB>

What applications did you run that would test 4Mbps? What ISP/ tier level of service? How many hops to the destination? At what average ping time per hop and with how much packet loss?
