He is implying that your statement that bandwidth is increasing at the rate of 100% each four months, is not, has not, and will not ever be the case. I was at a loss for what he was referring to. Perhaps he has trouble fathoming the progress because the bandwidth revolution has yet to really impact the masses . . . the profit margins are just not there for the carriers to become interested. International traffic and data is where most of the impact has been witnessed. All I know is that my firm has gone from 8+ hours download time a month in software updates and the like last year to less than 4 minutes a month – all in the midst of increasing demand on my side. It is difficult for me not to believe the studies I have been reading due to my personal experiences. Thanks for the postulate. Robert
