Re: Wired and wireless bandwidth cost rankings
http://www.theverge.com/2013/10/30/5047154/sprint-spark-enables-cellular-data-speeds-of-up-to-60mbps Look at the discussion. There IS competition in wireless but the cheaper guys are cheaper for a reason. Basically, the answer is, try the cheaper guys and if their flaws don't affect you or aren't ap...

Re: Wired and wireless bandwidth cost rankings
For broadband, it probably would be cheaper if there were caps. The problem is, if they introduced tiers or "pay for what you use" I would obviously be incentivized to use less data. Which means I would then be conscious of it. And that would be really annoying. The LAST thing I ever want ...

Re: Video Card
That card looks good. I love the fan-less design. How can you tell it supports 3 displays? Because of the "Eyefinity" branding? Is that incontrovertible evidence?

Re: Wired and wireless bandwidth cost rankings
A counter-point would be that the cost of rolling out new infrastructure (i.e. no shared/leased tubes/MVNO stuff) is very high. Prohibatively high. In fact, Verizon learned this and no longer rolls out new FIOS intrastructure because it's too expensive to do so. If they thought they could make money...

Re: Wired and wireless bandwidth cost rankings
How does competition work when the tubes are owned by one telecom or another? Would it be like an MVNO for fiber/copper?

Wired and wireless bandwidth cost rankings
http://arstechnica.com/business/2013/10/cheapest-150mbps-broadband-in-big-us-cities-costs-100-more-than-overseas/ No, price regulation is not the answer. I think the policy change would be to somehow make it financially attractive to compete in this arena. Then competition will naturally drive down ...

Re: Engine Swaps
I think the 7.5" will hold up fine with an auto.
If you have a 28-spline, this is your guy:

Rebate until the end of the year, bringing it under $400. Not bad at all.

Re: Engine Swaps
You may be able to adapt the backing plates to bolt to your axle flanges, but I would be shocked if it bolted right up. To fit that axle in a G-body, I'm sure you'd have to either cut and re-weld the axle housing (and use some custom length axles), or if it isn't preposterously wide, run rear wheels...

Re: Engine Swaps
Does the monte have posi? It was an option that mine does not have. The car has somewhere between 90-120K on it (haven't looked at the odometer in a while), so the factory diff probably needs some service/replacement anyway. Also I didn't drive it gently with the 305. You want a Truetrac. Worth the...
