    I would not take that bet. Since our business structure follows closely that of US/UK. It would be fair to say they have already achieved that status (comcast/verizon/whatever)

    My guess is that they know SOMETHING about Net Neutrality that we don't. Telstar infrastructure may be leverage.

    No, I picked Comcast for a reason... ****ty service, poor customer care and exorbitant fees and prices. Not to mention monopolizing the communication/data/media market.
    1.8 Ghz Pentium 4 (OC'd.) / Intel P4 (478) Motherboard / 800MHz DDR / 256 Mb DDR RAM / 40GB Seagate / RIVA TNT2 Pro 32MB / 24X12X24 Sony CDRW+ / 18" View Sonic CRT / Windows ME Yes it will play Doom... i plan on trying Crysis 3 one of these days.
