Amazing School Internet Speed
I recently downloaded FEAR Combat (a free multiplayer shooter), at a whopping 8 MBytes a second from the internet!! That is 64 Mbit!!! Typically residential high speed is 5-10 Mbit, and let alone 64 Mbit is decent throughput on a 100 Mbit network card in computer! The entire 1.8 GByte download took less then 5 minutes.

Way to go mcmaster for providing your students with the best of the best!
