7. I got cable......eat my dust

J/K....it only makes a difference in downloading large files (100mb or more) or in on-line games.

I download gigabytes of stuff, so I use the extra bandwidth, but for most people they don't need it.

Anyway, congradulations....welcome to the real internet.

13. Wanna mess around with the speed test??

After the results hit the back button once and check your results.

It's wildy inaccurate, but capture the screen, post it, then brag to those who don't know.

On edit....lol....I got an "Infinity kbps"....screen shot soon forthcoming.
