Comcast Internet was down, hard

HELP - Comcast.net:
National

General Outage - Resolved at 4/14/2005 2:37:48 AM EDT
(Connection to the Internet is currently unavailable. Our technicians are aware of the situation and are working to resolve the issue. This outage was logged at : 4/13/2005 6:47:00 PM EDT.)
I was wondering what was going on with my Comcast internet connection last night and just found this status page.

Looks like it was down for over seven hours. Almost as bad as NStar electric.

Here's a link for the status for the 617 area code.

Check your own area by replacing '617' in the URL with your own area code.

Here's a speed test page for us in Boston/NYC to use:

I get 6084/683!
