I am the 1%

Envy me

You know you want it.

The only thing that kind of speed is good for is downloading massive quantities of HD porn. Is that why you have it?

There is no possible way you can saturate that link. So it is effectively useless.

I don't know what we're talking about.

Maybe you can't. I certainly could find a few ways.

Jealous?

I get 50 up/down and it is fast enough to watch HD from Netflix and Hulu. I can also easily watch multiple HD streams from MLB TV, as well as NHL Gamecenter. I might upgrade to 100 up/down when my contract is up, but I won't really use it that much.

Nobody needs 500 up.

And it works just fine for everything.

My service is through Time Warner. I have 20 Mbps Dn, and I love it. It's more than enough for what I need, and I constantly use the internet, uploading and downloading HD video, watching Netflix in HD, downloading updates, and the like. Now, on the flipside, I have 1 Mbps Up, and it would be nice if that were a bit wider, since I do upload HD video. Still, for the price, I can't really complain!

Mmmmmmmmmmm hmm! I know dass right!

Hmm, not a good day for me, I'm only getting

You're right, I don't need 500mbps up, I need more than that. I think 4gbps would be nice, that way I could stream HD content at 60 fps with 32-bit color depth uncompressed.

My unrealistic pipe dreams aside, don't presume to tell me what speeds I need for my internet, because I actually could use 500mbps easily for work.

I think if you can get super fast internet... why the hell not? What possible downsides could there be if you can afford it?

Condo Internet is $60 a month, so not too expensive.

Probably if you're a dumbass with unsecured wireless and your leech of a neighbor goes and pirates everything on teh Interwebz and then the RIAA/MPAA goes after you...

I've not had any problems.

But, then we need to pick up our new modem...when we do it will be faster.

Here's what living in EBF gets you

Not bad considering I only pay $24 / month.

A bad day for me, but they're doing maintenance in my area so I'm shocked it's working at all.

here's mine from work...an A+, but really to be expected from a large defense contractor...

Not too shabby if I say so myself.

Yeah, here is what i got earlier on my cell at a stop light.

Why at a stop light? You should try it while in motion. For example, while merging onto a freeway.

I thought the OutLaws were the 1%ers?

The straight people are the 1%. We won! HAHAHA

If you have to ask yourself: "Am I a member of the 1%?"

You aren't.

From work.
