100MB Broadband
According to the Personal Computer World ntl is testing a 100MB broadband in the UK. Now, why would you need such a high speed? I remember that an IBM executive said in the 70’s that few kilobytes of memory will be enough for the next 20 or 30 years!! Of course its great for downloading huge files or streaming very high quality videos. But the main chinage will be that web will evolve to be a medium for offering high quality streaming video and high resolution 3D graphics, the integration between these two technologies will result in new web services and applications.

We all know that broadband suppliers advertise their speeds as "up to"
a certain level. But how fast is your actual connection? Now you can
find out with our broadband speed
test, use the checker below to find out. To get accurate results make
sure that you are not using your internet connection for anything else
while the test runs (it only takes a few seconds)
Looks like there will be a fair uptake for the 100mb product as Virgin are now rolling 100Mb Broadband in the UK already – and BT are planning to in cable areas. I’ve also posted the latest Ofcom results on real broadband speeds against those claimed by the ISPs – http://100mb-broadband.com/
