that's just crazy fast!! I LOVE FAST!!!

 

i need to get one of those internet connections

 

When are they gonna apply this Internet2 world wide?

 

OOOOhhh yeah... now going to the shops to buy a DVD will be a thing of the past

 

It's going to take several years before it's widespread. It will start out witih universities and move on from there.

 

*Ahem*


I would like a machine with the ability to write data that fast, please.

 

Oh, just get your 200 machine cluster onto it, I'm sure 200 Opterons with RAID arrays would cope

 

I heard this outside the MPAA headquarters"NOOOOOO...................!"
