We are the same people that were hyped when the 56K modem came out.. We’re doing pretty good.

Got my invite for South Western Québec this evening I'm in the pre-order now! Says to expect service in mid to late 2021. Can't wait to ditch my DSL service!

Some of us focus on the technology and not the personalities.

Me too, and connecting to a BBS. Wakey mentioned 56K, I could get about 50K with that modem and thought that was fast. At work we only have 100M on a fiber connection. I cant imagine getting 300 or even 150 over satellite.

He may be a crackpot but he sure is making positive advancements on a lot of different platforms. What are all of these other billionaires doing for the world?

You're making me feel old. I remember 110 baud, paper tape, and punch cards.
