Satellite is bi-directional?
Satellite is worse that dial-up?
Satellite must be fairly expensive too.
I have cable at $49.95/mo. They tout 1.5 mbs, NEVER seen that though,
more like 700, at that's on a very rare day.
Seems like the US lags far behind in broadband access among
technologically advanced countries and even a lot of no-so-advanced
countries.
After broadband, dial-up is literally p a i n f u l l y s l o o o o o o o w.
