    Internet Speeds

    Well, since i am now renting my own house with some friends we have each been assigned a bill to take care of. Being into computers and all that i took up the phone and broadband bills. The whole experience sort of opened my eyes as to how quickly the whole business is progressing and how much you can get for a small (well i think so) amount of money. In the end it wasn't really about what you know but who you know and i got a staff deal from O2 from a friend that worked there.


    So...i was wondering how fast people's internet connections are on here?
    Go along to Speedtest.net - The Global Broadband Speed Test and find out, then post the image on here, i am just curious.

    To get the ball rolling, here is mine.



    I pay £7.50 a month for this but that is kind of irrelevant...
    Just call me Tom

    Please visit www.tomranson.com and make me feel loved.

    I think we've already done this somewhere but whatever...



    Mine is $5/month, the only problem is that it's limited to 20GB download per month, which I destroy every months (around 55-60GB) - so the price is rather $40/month...

    Meh, what did you expect for $20 a month?
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    A bit pathetic, but I don't think I'm paying very much for it. It's fast enough for general usage.

    10GB at about $50 a month or something like that (it is ridiculous in Australia)
    I want to die in my sleep like my Grandma, not screaming like the other 3 people in her car.

    There are 10 types of people in this world. People who understand binary and people who don't.
