Quote of The Day: Cynthia Brumfield

"One Cisco exec (Cisco was once a key member of a lobbying group that advocated making 100 Mbps connections a national policy goal) is quoted in the article that it's kind of embarassing to explain in Taiwan why his 'premium' Internet connection is half as fast and costs more than the high-speed service in that country. With the amount of Internet video escalating on a daily basis, it's going to become increasingly embarassing to explain that typical U.S. broadband speeds hover around 3 Mbps, with a good chunk of the user base making do on far less than that."
