Thanks D. Great idea but is it really feasable? I guess thats my thoughts at this point. Home based users will never be able to afford the throughput and gateway charges/MB for real fiber to their houses in the near future. From the ISP side it is financial suicide to deploy that type of infrastructure and take 100 years to turn cash flow positive. Never mind that, how many people will truly use a glass connection to its fullest potential at home. Their associated PC's processors can not handle that bandwidth. Making dsl and cable the cost effective alternative for surfing at this time for the majority...Then again, I fast forward my brain in to the matrix and.............Super big cheers. :-)
