I'm on dialup - one of the people supporting telstra-clear's gambling on the
investment markets and government bailouts, I expect.
ifconfig:

Looks okay to me. I'm thinking it's probably also telecom's gambling on the
investment markets and government bailouts - ie, their total lack of interest in
maintaining their copper megamiles for which they are so happy to take an arm
and a leg for.
But I've already lost two goes at downloading the zarafa source code - a mere 2
megabytes. And it's starting to piss me off royally. I'll probably ring up
both telstraclear and telecom in the morning and give them rockets about their
incompetence.
