Satellite Internet gets the boot

October 31, 2007

Finally, I have real broadband. We moved last weekend to a town that has actual real cable high speed internet. Unfortunately, it is the apparently increasingly dastardly Comcast, but it is so way much better than satellite by Hughesnet, that I can’t really find it in myself to complain. Traffic is flying at four plus times the speed, I can actually do remote shell sessions that aren’t painful. I can Skype again (once I figure out how to use my USB headset on Linux.) I have to admit to being a very happy camper.
