The internet must be really great, only the best I have ever managed to get at home is a 56k dial-up connection to an ISP that connects me to the internet which is slower than molasses. If all these net companies are so rich, why do most web sites out there, especially the ones that are trying to sell you something, look like they are crashing in front of you? The internet is a good technology, but it is overhyped and real performance costs much more than people are willing to pay.
