Co-ax cable = Ford Model T Fiber Optic = Ferrari Enzo I used to sub contract for TW in rochester and we installed one of the first Fiber optic lines to a residence and I think that guy was payiing $1200 a month. He was running multiple servers out of his house on an 8 pair of fiber. This shit should replace all copper wire on the Telephone polls and anything else in the ground as far as communications are concerned. You can send so much information on it its sick. ---

> [@RedrRocket](#): > > So now the question is. Does anyone have this FIOs yet. My roommates sister lives down in Hamburg and she just got the FIOS. It’s pretty sad because the girl can barely turn on a computer. She has no idea of the potential of this. I’m debating dropping off a computer and leaving it hooked up in the corner and just telling her, “don’t touch that.” So I can run game servers/ftp/whatever off of it. ---
