Really.  This is from the Governor's "Hawaii Broadband Initiative" speedtest website:

"The indication of above average or below average is based on a comparison of the actual test result to the current NTIA 
definition of broadband which is 768 kbps download and 200 kbps upload. Any test result above the NTIA definition is 
considered above average, and any result below is considered below average."
