I came across this, and found it astonishing :

The story seems legit.

I usually pull about 300k per second and I'm pretty satisfied, how fast is your guys' internet connections?

Can filehosting sites like Rapidshare and Megaupload kick me the files as fast as I can download them? ( I think if I pay for it, I can get 18mbs)

Also, just out of curiousity- how do you guys surf the web/use Media Center.

Personally, I sit in a recliner about 6 ft. away from a 32" LCD Flatscreen and am always fully reclined.
