Was querying Google.com using Window's nslookup tool (nslookup google.com208.67.222.222).
Will eventually try my Mac on the 120Mbps comcast at the office (and perhaps at peak10 too) Uncached attempts using OpenDNS's 208.67.222.222 on Mac (I hate to use this network as the benchmark, its quite loaded down) and the poor Macbook is doing a USB file transfer.
