If this it slow, why is it blowing me away? The pages come up as fast as I can look and click.
Oh great! Now someone is gonna tell me it's my BRAIN that's slow!
It seems fast because you are mainly surfing with it. Most pages don't require that much bandwidth to load. You would notice more of a difference if you were playing online games or downloading larger files.
When I was on the City Council here, we pushed through a fiber to the home project. So every home in town has fiber directly to the house.
My speed is 10.14 down
4.98 up
However I saw the biggest increase in speed when I bought a new iMac last month.

Yes, the speed is good. BUT.... it it ONLY as good as the local server I am trying to access! I still download files where I am only getting them at one hundredth of what I am capable of because their servers are maxed out.

I've been out of the closet for a long time. I had my first Mac in 1988 - SE/20. I have 4 macs at home, including an old Mac Plus, and about 35 at work that I manage.

I manage about 80 Macbooks at work, several Mac Pro's and a Mac server so I am very familiar with them, and despite my constant ribbing, there ARE many things I like about them, but there are also things I really cannot stand as well.
Over the last few years I have seen our cable speed go up from 4 mbps to 20...and yet with few exceptions, it still seems like it's at 4. Some downloads take forever. Some downloads that I have done from the same servers are no faster now than they were then. What gives?
Is this just server traffic? If so where is the benefit of having more speed? It's like driving a Lamborghini on southern California..whats the point?
Who's your ISP?
I have Comcast and there was a point in time a couple of years ago that I was getting unreal download speeds in the 40's and 50's. Right now I'm back to 3.5 meg.
... Wait a minute... I think we were supposed to be getting the upgrade added on ... gonna call them today.

Heh! You're a Mac sys admin? What a wienie. Ha!
Do you wear "product" in your hair? Did your eyeglass frames cost more than your laptop?
