Re: Worlds fastest internet connection

Just think, one day probably not really that far off we are gonna look back at the speeds we have got now and think what the fuck was that.

Re: Worlds fastest internet connection

i hope so. i still remember having a 14.4 modem and dreaming of having a T1 line to my house. Now I have a 2MB/sec connection from ATT, so hopefully soon :D

then again I live in the US where broadband speeds suck compared to other countries w/ similar infrastructure.

Re: Worlds fastest internet connection

I wanna know how they tested that because I'm pretty sure no computer can move data at that rate internally

(do hard drives allow data transfer at that rate? wasn't there like a 3gigabit cap on sata?)

[QUOTE]To make all these silly numbers more understandable, I’ve applied a little math to it. The iTunes Store holds some 10 million songs. The average size of a song on iTunes is roughly 5 megabytes. So, the entire iTunes catalogue is about 50 million megabytes, or 47.6 terabytes heavy.

Now, turning that number of 15.5 terabits per second into terabytes, we get roughly 1.9 terabytes per second, meaning that it would take around 25 seconds (47.6 / 1.9 = 25) to transfer the entire iTunes catalogue over the distance of 7000 km.[/QUOTE]

:RockOn:

Too bad there isnt a damn thing on this planet that could write all of that info that fast, this number must just be light shooting down one end of a fibre optic cable to the other.
