What are the cops doing that means the motorway's closed for 14hrs?

Serious question.

According to Greg (what's his name, the Police Union dude) - Picking up evidence.

They had to find all of the spent shells & cartridges - all shots need to be accounted

100mb will take 4-5 hours straight, assuming a fullspeed 56k connection with no line noise, cutouts, etc. (not fucking likely in a rural environment)

Have you looked at wireless, eta on RBI, etc?

Lias - your math is slightly out.

Dial Up - 5Kb/s
1Mb = 200 seconds (3 1/3 mins per Mb)
100Mb x 3 1/3 mins = 333 mins / ~5 1/2 hours @ best.

Amazing what a bit of consumer backlash can bring...

Q:    Does Xbox One require an “always on” Internet connection?
A:    No, it does not have to be always connected, but Xbox One does  require a connection to the Internet. We’re designing Xbox One to be  your all-in-one entertainment system that is connected to the cloud and  always ready. We are also designing it so you can play games and watch  Blu-ray movies and live TV if you lose your connection.

Q:    How do consumers benefit by being connected to the cloud?
A:    The cloud makes every experience better and more accessible.  Because Xbox One is powered by the cloud:

  • Your games have more power available to create new gameplay, persistent worlds, and deeper experiences.
  • Your system and games can update automatically, so you shouldn’t have to wait for downloads or updates.
  • Your games and entertainment are stored and saved in the cloud, so you can access them anytime, from any Xbox One.*
  • Start a game, movie, or TV show on one console and finish exactly where you left off on another.
  • You can play multiplayer games  with your friends, stream movies or TV shows right away, and enjoy the  community and social features of Xbox Live.
  • Xbox One can recognize you, log you in and tailor your home screen just for you.

You can discover what your friends are playing, watching and listening to if they choose to share.
These are just a few examples of how customers benefit from our platform  being connected to the Internet. It brings the future of TV and games  to our consumers—and it’s designed for today and the decade ahead.

* Subject to content geographical restrictions.

Q:    When will Xbox One launch and in what markets?
A:    Xbox One will launch in markets around the world later this year. We’ll have more to share later.

Q:    Will Xbox One allow players to trade in, purchase and play pre-owned games?
A:    We are designing Xbox One to enable customers to trade in and resell games. We’ll have more details to share later.

Q:    Will my current Xbox Live Gold membership work with Xbox One or will I have to buy a new one?
A:    You do not need to buy a new Xbox Live Gold membership. Your current membership will work on both Xbox 360 and Xbox One.

Theres a legitimate reason for rectangle boxes though, all to keep it modular, which has been the successful way for the last 30 years.

Correct, and with this 'revolution' of design, everything will now be daisy chained across your desk via Thunderbolt.
