¿Question?

"Which would you rather have twice as fast:
your computer's processor or modem?

After 30 years of semiconductor doublings under Moore's Law, processor speed are measured in megahertz. On the other hand, after 60 years of telco's snoozing under monopoly law, modem speeds are measure in kilobits. Modems are way too slow for Internet access, but you knew that."[3]
