Interesting, having used Netflix and having it 'step down' from HD to not HD when something kicked in (like a Windows update) this result suggests that they are pretty good at traffic management as well. That was one of the questions I had for my sister who lives in Kansas City.

Now this also means that folks will start advertising their botnets for a premium if they have a strong contingent of 'Google' hosts. And that will be the next interesting test.

If Google can run as an ISP and effectively deal with zombie PCs (which is to say mitigate them), they will replace any other ISP out there just because operationally they are that much more efficient.

Still waiting to hear which city is #2 on the list.
