Remember when you had a dial up internet connection and then one of your friends got this new thing called “cable” internet and it was the most amazing thing you had ever seen? How could it possibly be so fast? Why doesn’t it make ridiculous sounds while it tries to connect?

It all depends on what exactly you are looking for out of your internet experience.
