woohoo! friday!
now to work out how i can get over town for friday drinkies. i'm sure i'll find a way.
plus i've gotta find a reasonable adsl provider for my parents. they only use the intermanet for checking the crossword and hotmail, but they're thinking of getting a second line, i think for the same price i can get them on broadband, and get a better connection than their existing one.
they thought the telstra one looked good. so i had to explain to them what a shonk it is. they thought that 200MB would be enough. took me a while to explain to them that once they had adsl, 200MB wouldn't even cover the required microsuck automatic updates.
and if they do any browsing...
the local provider has a similar plan. i used to work for them when my brother-in-law (at the time) owned it. so i was curious to see what their plan was. so i was suitably impressed to see that they've copied telstra. they're gonna have a lot of pissed off users in a coupla months i reckon.
