Ludicrous speed! 150 gigabits per second!

According to Fermilab, researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford Linear Accelerator Center recently joined an international team in shattering the world network speed record. To capture first place in the SC|05 Bandwidth Challenge, the team of high energy physicists, computer scientists and network engineers led by the California Institute of Technology transferred physics data at a rate of over 150 gigabits per second--equivalent to downloading over 130 DVD movies in one minute. Poor MPAA (& RIAA)... Wont be long now before we can download the entire Hollywood library of thousands of movies in just minutes. I'm hearing a Homer Simpson, "Woohoo!" in my head.laughing out loud Ludicrous speed ahead!
