Assume that customers wont use that much... For example:

You can sell an 'unlimited' bandwidth which really has a limit of 100gb and charge $100 a month. You have to assume/hope people dont run over the limit.

when your servers run a 2ghz zeon and IDE drives, it's gonna be slow no matter how much bandwidth you have.

Bandwidth has no barring on the speed of anything hosted. The pipeline it is connected to is what limits the speed aswell as the specifications of the server. The bandwidth is just the maximum ammount of data that can be passed through that pipe. So in reality, bandwidth can never be unlimited, because it will be unlimited to the maximum throughput that the backbone/cable can carry and what your server can withhold.
