Keith, Alot of families spend $20 going to McDonalds... Yes, they will spend the exta cost for ATHM speed... Remember alot of AOL or other dialup users have an extra phone line in the house... Just drop that line and you cover the cost of cable and gain many times the speed. Also, you are right, many will not regularly download 180mg, but the way the internet adds are getting and the size of web pages, it is going to take a bigger and bigger pipe to do normal browsing. I have a T1 (1.54mb) line at work and it gets beat up with all of the images that web advertisers are throwing out. Technology is not making surfing more efficient, it is just putting more out for us to have to pull down..... dej
