And that's bad for the customer how?

Based on the article, it seems like this could be a perk for Google Fiber users. Man, I can't wait to see that service spread to more cities. It'll finally hold the existing providers' feet to the fire.

I wanted to pipe in to say the same thing. For the longest time, I thought my Late 2008 15" MBP couldn't handle 8GB (chipset issue, I though). I figured 6GB was the largest, and I just stayed with the 4GB as it came from the factory. Then one day late last year, I realized that a) the Late 2008 15" MBP can take 8GB and b) 8GB of RAM was now VERY affordable.
It made a huge difference. No more constant thrashing of the HDD as it tries to manage a large swap file.

Take a look at vroomvroomvroom.com. It's the site I always use for booking rental cars. Simple UI and no hidden fees.

At first glimpse, it seems a bit intense, but if it's what it takes for us to compete on a global scale, then so be it. I'd take it over the bigco where I'm currently at, if only so I could just continue to learn.

Surely the development efforts on Kiln have been to counter this assumption, no? Have you used Kiln, and if so, what are your thoughts?

It's at least a LOT better than what was there before. It makes people stop, think, and interact.
