First of all, WHEN did I Ever brag. I didn't and I dont brag. Just because you post your download specs does not mean that you brag, you're the one braggin. And thats invalid link you lamer, which proves once again that you don't what the hell you doin. Why the hell do you even have a computer? Single, hahahahaha, man I don't even wanna get started with that one. Sorry buddy, but I have a long term girlfriend, but unfortunately she is in Florida studying. Not too bad cuz she does not mind if I date other girls. Do you know what a date is besides your five fingas...O wait, in your case 2 fingas. I bet this is what you'll look like in about 20 years:

Ding!!!! the bell rings to end round 1!
Prey seems to have taken the points from the judges in the 1st round. Cooler fought a good round but had a limited arsenal, jab, jab hook. Cooler sits on the stool in his corner reading a dictionary looking for better words to defend himself with.

Ding!!!!! Round 2!!!!!

Cooler,

Dude you make no sense. Just shutup, before Prey reaches thru your junky computer and wrings your little neck!

P.S,

Cable owns DSL in my area. 768/128k DSL for 50 bucks a month...gotta be 13 K from telco. Cable= 34 a month. 3-5 mbit downloads [bitch!], 128k uploads however.

Verdict = Cable R0X0RZ!

I can take you there also :)

Man I like my Cable even though I'm switching in December. Rogers@home package is Download=5.6mb/upload=3.1mb and I'm alright with those speeds but for some reason most of the time I get real slow speeds because I think im too far away from my CO and also there is 193 people on my node!! lol so im going with LOOK ultrafast 2 wireless internet. 3mbit/1mbit and plus no one will relly switch to this isp because everyone where i live IS @HOME crazy!!.Dsl i say get's slow speeds but you get constant flow which I would like with alot of banwidth with d/ling and up/ing

soo sad u guyz talking about things that are totaly not technoligy related...
cable can get upto ( my damn friend has this )
45mbit.......
dsl is lower.. but its not shared.. big deal..
the thing about xdsl is that u get what ur promissed (usually) ..
cable is more of a luck thing.. i get a 500k/s d/l *promise* from my cable isp..
but usually i get hell higher.. soo who the hell give's a damn!? its all about your ISP
remember this word : ISP
I S P I S P I S P
well.. hehe ok Image

by the way : Dsl sux.. badly..soo dont give me no **** cuz i will never subscribe myself to that kinda internet suicide ..

ADSL suxx even baddddder! god!
download isnt that good and upload is like 0.00000000000000001k/ light year

my opinion stick with cable..
if u have an ISP like me who upgrade's ur grid by request ( no $$$ ) ..
all i do is phone tell them " hey man this download im getting sux.. what is going on!? "
well they come check it out.. if its really slow they put another upgrade on the Grid
and everything is okeydokey..
well that only happens when u have an Experimental ISP like mine Image

well.. thats all i have to say about this one

And you are defending this? Thats more than five times what I pay for cable. If I paid that much I better get full ethernet throughput.

"I like to see a cable surpass my upload rate and by the way my download and upload never change at all i always get the same no matter what time of the day."

I get 140KB/sec uploads on my @home cable that sure seems faster then your 80KB. MY upoad and download don't change either. I get 400KB/sec downloads that sure seems faster then your maxmium of 187KB. I get 40ms ping on non local servers. I get a static ip. I only pay 45/month and some months I don't pay anything for reffering other people to @home. I AM BETTER THEN YOU IN EVERY WAY

I know your are not implying that the Internet is not shared?? It is true that DSL is not shared up to the point of the CO.....then IT IS SHARED!!

Bu that is not the issue here! I think he has an opinion....just like everyone has an *ss*ol*!! So let him be......... and lets get to something more technical......

Cooler, I've heard enough of your Sh*t! Go back back under your bridge where you belong.

Make valid facts about your opinions and Respect other people's opinions. You are not the god of broadband and being the newbie that you are, you have no idea what you're talking about. Your ISP and location are factors to decide if cable or DSL is better. Some areas have sh*tty DSL service and other have sh*itty cable service.

Personal attacks on others is not a good idea here. Bad things will happen....

And I'm just warming up.. Image

cooler1234,
Why Dont You Just Kill yerself? My Cable KIKS ASS!! OOL is the best broadband for under t3 cost. Its 10 M/bit down and 1 M/bit up. I am always upping at least 117k to 128k even ask ssjDoh. And my average d/l is roughly 650 k/byte +. You a flamer if you think cable sux. Get yer facts straight 1st then bitch l8er. The Dsl is my area is horrid. my friend tweaked the sh*t outta his dsl from Verizon and only gets on average 40 k/byte, and he pays $49.95. For OOl i pay $29.95 and the tech is superb. Cable has gone down 3 times. The 1st two times it was back up within 1 hour. And the othe time the lines were cut for 1 mile and that was taken care of in 4 1/2 hours. So just think b4 u speak flamer. FLAME ON BOYZ!

Guys Guys.. Stop fighting.. Cable and DSL is faster in diffrent ways.. There's DSL ISP's faster then cable and there's Cable services faster then DSL..

So just keep it as that because this will never get solved.. in Some ereas its faster then others,

I gotta get in my two cents here, k? Image Image

anyway, cooler1234, i've never met you, i don't know you, i've never read any of your posts before now....but here is what i gotta say:

I don't ever want to meet you, i don't want to know you, i don't want to read any of your posts in the future.

Why you sittin here swearing your motherf**kin head of at Prey....or as you would say "mr. no life"

well, obviously he has a life beyond absolute idiocy.....which is basically what your life is full of, pure idiocy..

now i think that unlike Merc, you shouldn't get another chance, so f**k off.....you mess with one speedguider, and you'll get all of us on ur back..........
