    Cool Aussie invents way to download porn upto 200 times faster

    Oh and other internet sites too. Not that you're as interested.

    Local whiz speeds up broadband by 200 times

    A MELBOURNE PhD student has developed technology to make broadband internet up to 200 times faster without having to install expensive fibre optic cables.

    Harnessing the potential power of telephone lines and DSL broadband, the technology will deliver internet speeds up to 250 megabits per second, compared with current typical speeds of between one and 20 megabits per second.
    More like a factor of ten... but this should allow for larger signatures... eventually.
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    My thoughts exactly.

    Its brilliant, but my concern is still having water to drink, then not taking 20 minutes to travel a kilometre.

    It's good and all, but will Telstra actually bother?

    Classic Ronin.

    On the other hand, I need a new HDD!!! With this download speed, I can stockpile HUGE amounts of porn.
    Ja mata, TosaInu. You will forever be remembered.

    Proud

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?
