I come from the time when the first internet connection my house had was a 56k modem...just before cable modems/DOCSIS started rolling out in the midwest. These speeds are somewhat mind boggling to me. (Yeah, yeah, datacenter vs home, but it's still somewhat hard to imagine saturating pipes like those.) While standing in a state of mild awe at 800Gb/s I read reviews and consider upgrading my house to 2.5Gb/s equipment... Should I just wait for 10Gbit to get a bit cheaper? Should I ditch copper and go fiber like that guy who was on the front page here recently (probably not, but that was cool)? Maybe raw single core CPU performance is starting to level off a bit, but it seems that networking technologies are still advancing a rapid clip!
