Upgraded!

YES! My DSL connection was just upgraded to 6MBit/s downstream. It’s amazing that these speeds are available for consumers for affordable flat rates.

I remember a comment made by Derrick De Kerckhove in the final panel of a 4th doors of perception conference about »Speed« in 1996:

No body is complaining about the television being too slow. But everbody is complaining about the Internet being too slow. And why is that?? Because the Internet definitely is too slow!

Good old days!
