If you don't mind me asking, how much are you paying for 15/2?

I just upgrade my TWC Biz Class connection at home from 7/1 to 15/2
*gasp!*

I'm loving the new connection and I don't think it has the same
restrictions as the residential service.

speakeasy.net/speedtest produced the following yesterday:

Last Result:
Download Speed: 14619 kbps (1827.4 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 1942 kbps (242.8 KB/sec transfer rate)

Needless to say, I'm thrilled with the increased bandwidth.
