Comment on Super Wi-Fi Technology Isn't Really Wi-Fi

Comments

"Wi-Fi" is a dumb name anyway.

Well, it's accessible to aging Boomers for whom "Hi-Fi" actually means something. I suppose in that sense it helps them get on board.

For the younger generation, I'm noting a thing where wireless internet is perceived as the standard nowadays, and you actually have to be specific when talking about "wired" internet.

"What speed of internet do you have?"

"Wireless!"

sigh
