I guess if you're shifting large CAD files across the world it'll
still be quicker than posting them on CD/DVD :-)

I have a customer toying with taking a 10Mb lan extension type product
to upload their high resolution images to their web server... Currently
they post DVDs to their host... They are in Bristol though and literally
100m from the ISPs POP. Setup costs are still a small fortune though!

Wow they must be big images then if they have to post them on DVD :-)

Yes.

A typical image might be ~50MB and 5000x3500 pixels ...

And their server is hosted in Holland.
