FiOS FTW! I just got it back after having to deal with Comcast internet in my apartment for the last year. Slow, and down at least once a week. Can't blame it on lines either - the apartment complex is only a few years old. Comcast internet is just teh suck.

Comcast = 16mb down / 2mb up for ~67.99 / month

<or>

FiOS = 20mb down / 5mbup for ~44.99 / month

Considering Comcast's regular 6mb service doesn't usually come close to hitting that number, I'm sure their 16mb service doesn't either. I haven't ever seen my FiOS below 15mb down, and it's usually 17-19.
