The data flow sent by CERN to Caltech doubled the previous internet speed record. This flow is comparable to sending an hour long CD in one second or a DVD film in seven seconds. This speed is 20,000 times quicker than most broadband connections.
Question:- Will NTL/TeleWest/Pipex/BT ever get up to this kinda standard?

Answer:- They will if you pay for it. But you won't be able to use it to get your Emails.
