Can anyone explain why a Router needs 4GB of storage ?

What do they mean by "OnHub has 4GB of storage space, so there’s plenty of room for auto-updates and the latest software features." ? Is software for a router that large ?

Can someone explain what it takes for Google Fiber to come to a city ?

Do they buy an existing fiber company in the city ? Do they buy dark fiber ? Do they lay new fiber ?

I've been looking for resources on when to use rails vs when to use node.js. I've been programming in ruby/rails for 2 years and picked up node about 9 months ago. Any tips or resources to learn which tool to use depending on the problem?
