Back in the day I first got on the internets with a 2400 baud modem dialing into the local BBS (who else here can relate to that shit?! LOL) It took years to download a fucking shareware game demo! Then one day we ugpraded to a 14.4 fax modem and got Prodigy, shit was dope!! Then a 28.8 and eventually a 56k x2 (but rural phone lines suck so you end up at 36k)... Then a bunch of years passed by and finally the day came when I have 8Mbps to the house, yet, the fucking filesizes have grown so much it still takes forever to download shit! My servers at the colo live on a 100Mbps pipe, shit is blazingly fast... I go there to DL large stuff and dump it onto a USB drive hehe..
I voted broadband, even though the half-T1 at the office feels like a fucking 56k line!! 20+ computers & 7 employees sharing the same line = slow...
