Arlanda Express will take you at 200km/h to Stockholm from under either 
terminal of the airport. Takes under 30 minutes.

28x will at least still take me to Pittsburgh from PIT; To get to Oakland, 
about 45 minutes. To be fair, the West Busway works ok so to downtown it's 
probably about the same. Compared to Arlanda Express the 28x is a bargain, 
too. It's probably underpriced.
