If the internet is the only thing you use, sure. But I have a build system at work I use frequently to pull large ISOs (25GB) down at a solid 90MB/s (with the gigabit ethernet in the monitor). And I did stay at a hotel recently where the internet bandwidth was 700mbit down. That speed seems amazing to us stuck here in North America, but many parts of Asia have gigabit internet for cheaper then most of us are paying for 5-30mbit. Apple sells these systems worldwide, including increasingly in China. Really a shame how far behind internet access is here.
