Default OT The joys of BT

I've got friends elsewhere on Virgin cable. Their broadband is solid,
but not here. My advice to anyone considering cable is to ask their
neighbours first!


It was said that the build quality of the original cable networks varied
quite a lot due to location. I believe London was one of the worst. Out
here in Cambridge it was Comcast originally who built it and its been
good too.

Cambridge Cable shirly?



Well it was called Cambridge Cable but owned by Comcast...

Not originally it wasn't,



As near as dammit it was;!...
