+1 on the networking angle, although Intel does have Thunderbolt, which at least gets you 10Gb peer-to-peer networking if your hardware and OS support it.
It does seem very weird that 10Gb copper networking has existed since 2006, but hasn't fallen down to prices so low that it naturally replaces gigE.
It seems entirely possible at this point, that 802.11ax will be finished before 10GBASE-T becomes widespread outside of server applications.
- bhouston 12y agoI as well desire 10GBase-T that is affordable. It seems to be very slow coming. I think the issue is that while there is some business desire for this, the consumer only wants wireless -- thus that is where all the effort is going. Probably to get past 1GB in the next few years, one will deploy a wireless network (although wireless suffers horrible congestion as opposed to switched networks.)
