interesting that interleaving on cable only adds small latency unlike adsl where it can go crazy high.

Now if only they would turn interesting stuff like this into a TV series, presented by someone like Neil Morrissey or Kate Humble.

Cable lives in a system that is supposed to be closed, insulated and shielded. ADSL runs on unbalanced and unshielded twisted pair and in some cases requires extreme interleave to mitigate noise spikes.
