I am paying for their highest home-internet, yet we are still capped at 95 GB a month.
MY connection is 10 mbps.
THEIR highest, is 18 mbps, and they still cap it at 95 GB a month. ______
If you are ready to pay $100 a month for 18 mbps internet, Rogers can at least give you the liberty of taking as much bandwidth as you fucking want.
With 18 mbps, you can use your full internet download speed for a period of 26 hours. This means, you are allowed 26 hours worth of download time for a whole month.
The shitty thing? I have no choice but to use Rogers' crappy internet service. There is only a lesser Bell service in my area, but I'm pretty sure Bell doesn't have a retarded bandwidth cap like Rogers does.

Bell does not have it for higher-tier accounts.
I still don't get how the fuck you can use 95 GB in a month unless you deliberately do so.

Many downloads of Crysis.
They all failed.

Actually, upon further inspection, Bell has a 100 GB cap.
I've never come anywhere near it though.

We had three internet-hungry people using it at the same time.

That is very, very sad, Patrick.
Although it is more sad in my case because all of us are on the computer all day.

There are four computers currently in operation, two of which are on the network. The Blackbox is always sought out though.

At 867 MHz, it pars the Dumpster Dell in speed. It's pretty funny how well OS X is optimized. Everything's snappy and visual effects run perfectly on that GeForce 2 MX.
Aero struggles with an FX 5200.

Aqua runs perfectly on a GeForce 2 MX.
Compiz runs rather well on a GeForce 6200.
Aero struggles with a GeForce 7800 GS.
Great work Microsoft.

I don't understand why their code is so poorly programmed. I think I would be able to get hired there.
