FIOS Installed

I am very excited today, "and why is that?" you ask.... because today my Verizon FIOS installation was completed. After having a new fiber cable buried from the street to my house yesterday, and two engineers working inside my house for a few hours today, I finally got connected this afternoon.  I  am now experiencing approx 15mbps download and 2mbps upload speeds.  Check out the results of my speed test on SpeakEasy:

Nicely. Wish Adelphia would get off its ass and start installing Adelphia Extreme in more markets -- that matches FIOS for the same price. Or Verizon would install more places. Out where I am, the best I can get is Adelphia Premier at 6mb down/768kb up.

Reminds me of a quote from the Simpsons.

Nerd: I invented a device that lets you download porn a million times faster.
Marge: Does anyone really need that much porn?
Homer: Mmmm, million times faster.
