I've got a "mere" 100 Mbps symmetrical fiber optic Internet connection to my house here in Japan, and my computer can't handle the speed.  In other words, uTorrent forcibly slows down the speed because the hard drive can't write fast enough and the cache runs out so it gives me a "disk overloaded" message and slows down.  Granted, I'm using a laptop, but still the fastest I got (at least on uTorrent) sustained speed was only 4MBytes/s, and I know the connection can easily go to 10MBytes/s.  So start giving us faster hard drives so we can actually USE our connections to their full potential.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mark]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 6th 2006 7:03AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on IEEE votes 100G as the next Ethernet speed, scheduled for 2010]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/06/ieee-votes-100g-as-the-next-ethernet-speed-scheduled-for-2010/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/06/ieee-votes-100g-as-the-next-ethernet-speed-scheduled-for-2010/</guid><description><![CDATA[The guys from IEEE were at the hotel where I am the IT tech a few weeks back discussing new 802.11 standards... Good stuff, crazy speeds.  I agree with Mark though, unless we get actual hardware that is capable of keeping up then it won't matter if you have 100G or hell 100TiB for that matter.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[John Bibbs]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 6th 2006 9:27AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on IEEE votes 100G as the next Ethernet speed, scheduled for 2010]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/06/ieee-votes-100g-as-the-next-ethernet-speed-scheduled-for-2010/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/06/ieee-votes-100g-as-the-next-ethernet-speed-scheduled-for-2010/</guid><description><![CDATA[Like the article says, this is for backbone cabling and long haul circuitry.  This is not something that you'd see any time soon built into your motherboard.  And this will help out a lot.  I mean, the last time I set up a network, we grouped six gigabit fiber ports together on a Cisco 6500 to create a 6Gb etherchannel just so it could talk to one of the other core switches.  And even that guy was coming close to being saturated.  Sure, we're never going to max out a 100Gb internet connection at home, but think about at, say, an ISP where they have a few thousand users online all at the same time maxing out their capabilities on bit torrent.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brett Majesky]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 7th 2006 7:53AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on IEEE votes 100G as the next Ethernet speed, scheduled for 2010]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/06/ieee-votes-100g-as-the-next-ethernet-speed-scheduled-for-2010/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/06/ieee-votes-100g-as-the-next-ethernet-speed-scheduled-for-2010/</guid><description><![CDATA[I spy an eSATA cage.<br><br>FYI, at least for a few years, this won't be for single system interconnects, it will be for trunking, just like every new Ethernet speed jump.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mb]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 6th 2006 11:19AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
