This is the year 2002. Satelitte High Speed Is Already Here. Fiber Optics Are Already Here. Wireless Is Already Here. So Get Off My Balls About This "Bandwith" Stuff, And "Screwing" Our Neighbours. If Sympatico Can't Fix Things - They Should Just Let Someone Who Can. Out Of 100,000 Thousand Clients, I Doubt Very Much That 50 or 60 "HighEnd" Users (Servers, Movies, Etc..) Will Make That Much Of A Difference. If It Does, Then Sympatico Is More Pathetic Than Even I Thought. No Matter What The Case " Unlimited is Unlimited ". And You Don't Wait Until You've Signed Up Half A City - To Change Your Mind. We Are Being Screwed From The Start. We Are Being Screwed Today. We Will Be Screwed Tommorrow. Man ... What Planet Are You On?
