While we continue to languish in Batelco‘s shadow with their inferior internet connections and exhorbitant broadband rates and their stranglehold on the .bh domain, CERN has achieved a new internet speed record and have transferred 1.1 Terabytes of data at 5.44 gigabits a second (Gbps) to a lab at the California Institute of Technology!
Think of it another way, they can transfer a full CDROM (680MB) in about a second!
How long before this technology perculates to this area of the world? 2200 AD is a good guestimate.
