Those are interesting figures and they go a long way to dispel the myth that only the only people left on dial-up are hicks from Lower Butt Fuck.

Somebody earlier in the thread mentioned that the rest of the world was really into broadband. I would tend to dispute that. Korea might have a large population of broadband users but many western nations are still predominently on dial-up.

Too often webmasters forget that while the fastest connection and the biggest screen resolution with all the other bells and whistles are common-place to them most of our potential customers are just average users who don't spend every waking second surfing the net.

Those guys don't have or even see the need for the biggest, fastest etc when it comes to their computer and internet connection.
