no, but I was on a uni network for a year (basically gbit with good IX connectivity in the UK) and being able to fling around data to the cloud like it's your local network really cuts down on things you think/worry about - making it easier to work and try new things.

Is it wasteful? sure, but who cares if it allows you to try random stuff you would hesitate about otherwise?

I'm not saying its not nice - I'd like 1Gb! But the US has terrible connectivity as well, see HN discussions about how evil Comcast is. Hasn't prevented them from starting successful companies.

Its like "we need more car companies, lets build more roads". True to an extend, but there are so many other factors.
