Larry: Fiber = Volts!?! This cannot be related to the fiber itself, so it must have something to do with the bridging/connection points? Anyway, cable internet connectivity currently has, imho, one MAJOR drawback. Drawback? Yup, it's basically a "party line" type of service. What do I mean by THAT? Simply that as long as you're one of a few in the neighborhood who have the cable internet connectivity then you can get the glory of the high-speed aspect of the service. However, should lot'sa folks in the neighborhood join up, then contention for the circuit goes up, and the speed goes south. And this is not to mention the "hacker" aspects of one or more of those same neighbors, with the proper knowledge, being able to monitored each others internet communications. Need I say I'm curious to know how cable companies are gonna overcome this limitation? Heh! John~
