That is probably the situation in western Europe (except that Spain is/was less developed than most of W.Europe). ADSL was faster and cheaper to install. And what I said is that my guess is that perhaps in Russia that was not the case perhaps because the network wasn't fully digitalized. It is an hypothesis, I do not know.
I don't think it matter. ADSL providers are there and always were. The only problem is that with ADSL you get only Internet, but with Ethernet you get also the LAN.
Which to most people is probably of zero importance. I have no need to have a local network connection to my neighbour, but with ADSL I can still always ping him.
Today, yes. But some 10 years ago it was very important. Just imagine you need a new version of Windows... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
