Competition is a good thing
Competition is really a good thing - With AT&T breathing down cable based internet service, Road Runner has been upping the upload and download speeds on their Road Runner Turbo package. I just did a speed test and found my download speed to be 8.5 MB and my upload speed to be almost 0.95 MB.

Holy Bandwidth - Take 2
Just signed up for something called Road Runner Turbo which is the faster version of Road Runner cable Internet service that is supposed to provide up to 8 Mbps downstream and up to 512 Kbps upstream. And the results don't disappoint - Here is my bandwidth minutes after the upgrade:
Here is the before speed-test snapshot I had taken a couple of months ago. The download is almost twice as fast and the upload is at least 100K faster and close to 500kbps in other random tests.
PS: Speed Test conducted using the Speakeasy Speed Test flash application.
