wait till the big companies get ahold of Cisco’s new router, AT&T is already trying it out.

“The Cisco CRS-3 triples the capacity of its predecessor, the Cisco CRS-1 Carrier Routing System, with up to 322 Terabits per second, which enables the entire printed collection of the Library of Congress to be downloaded in just over one second; every man, woman and child in China to make a video call, simultaneously; and every motion picture ever created to be streamed in less than four minutes.”

should be an interesting next few years for the internet. As long as net neutrality stays in place. On the upside for Google though is they are adamantly pushing for net neutrality.

I thought other people would be interested. I think sharing information is what this cite should be about.

@philosopher did I say not to share information? I was just pointing out competition and the new strides internet was taking from both parties. Share away!

I did not mean to criticize you.
I was actually interested in what you have to say.
I was just commenting. Informing each other about things is what makes all Q and A cites worthwhile.
Too often some people not you are too argumentative. I did not mean your are.
I appreciate information.
