    DSL/Cable/Wireless in Silver Spring, MD

    I live in Silver Spring and use Verizon DSL. I have no complaints with the service. We're currently subscribed to their 1.5 mb downstream plan, but they do have packages with higher bandwidths. They recently released their FIOS service, which I believe is fiber-to-the-premises. This offers...

    Everquest is 77th most wealthy "country" in the world...

    Sorry, I don't really know all that much. The Norrath economics paper refers to that game though, thats about all I know of it. I do know that they ask you if you would be willing to spend money if you were to participate in the beta, which leads me to think that you would have to spend some...

    Everquest is 77th most wealthy "country" in the world...

    Actually, there is a game coming out that will do just that. All of the money that they make will be based off of player transactions. From what I understand, it will be free to play. Here's a link: Project Entropia
