Broadband Suckiness

smartglobeAlright, so now I have two of these motherfuckers. A Globe T@ttoo and a Smart Bro. Neither works as advertised. Damnit! So much for Mo’ Twister’s vaunted credibility.

Rom is a twenty-one year old experiment. She began life with the notion that she was a Filipino-Chinese Ilongga. Now, she just thinks of herself as Ilongga, having realized that she has failed at being Chinese. At least that's what her aku told her upon learning that she had fallen in love with a Filipino.

    If you have DSL, it’s plainly obvious these things wouldn’t work as advertised. They simply do not have the capacity.

    I was a Smart bro subscriber for 6 months and I don’t know why I wasted so much time with their crappy service if there’s a much better broadband option – Sun. With Sun, I finally saw the sun.

    “Broadband” is a marketing term. Truth in advertising would dictate they name it “LessNarrowBandThanBeforeAtTimes”. Real broadband exists only in the labratories. It will arrive when they work out the kinks with photon light switches(IBM and others are working on these “light switches”)and lay fiber optics to every home and office. At that point information travels via photons of light not via old fashioned electrons running on the same copper wire your grandmother used for her telephone.
