Yea, yea, everyone knows that Guglielmo Marconi invented the telephone and much, much more.

I had the very first DSL line in the Tampa Bay area offered by General Telephone (now Verizon). At that time I had a 30 pair cable coming into my house. That blew away the techs installing the DSL. I had several 4 wire leased circuits on local loops and a T1 to AT&T with frame relay on it going to ...

That said my neighbor has had a T3 going into Fort Meade for many years. I wonder if he has upgraded without telling me. <envy>

Holy **** man! That's some serious pipe! I don't have anything near that.... I have a Cable Modem. Heh.... I DO however, have ONE very VERY good friend who works for our govt, and has an OC line to play with at work.

Yes, I drooled..... An OC line... A REAL OC line.... MAN the **** I could do! I could play Pong like 500 times per second! Lol. (Really I don't even know what I'd do with that kind of Bandwidth, but what I do know, is within a day or two I'd figure SOMETHING out lol).

EDIT:

Fort Meade? Mmmmmmmm. OK, Now I'M Envy like. I know what that place is, and what isn't to far from it. There's some incredibly, INCREDIBLY skillful people, who work not to far from there. If what you told me about your previous job is 100&#37; accurate, that's all I'll have to say to you to make you understand who I'm talking about
