Intel shows off first Light Peak laptop
Intel shows off first Light Peak laptop
Works with fiber optics at 10Gbps. We expect Intel to increase that speed dramatically. Interestingly enough my current Internet connection is fiber optics at 3 Mbps. 30 Mbps is available too. However, 40 Gbps connection (IPv6 I assume) should be 10 000 times faster. Download in a second instead of 3 hours? Hush. That is the difference like between current 30Mbps and forgotten 2400bps dial up. Thus, we are still at Internet beginnings regarding IPv6. Thus, there is enough place for hardware optimism.
