I have been using 100mb internet access for years. It makes a big difference for downloading big stuff, but really makes little difference with ordinary browsing as standard broadband does that quickly enough (I am comparing 100mb at work with around 3mb at home).

I mean I have a service that goes up to 100mb to my actual PC. Usually sits at around 60mb, but I have seen very nearly the full 100mb when I have been working in the small hours.
