13Gb? On ihug satalite? Okay, let's see.
You get 2Gb free, which gives 11Gb left to pay for, and an average of 5
cents a Mb..

steven@broken:~$ echo 'scale=2;((11*1024)*5)/100' | bc
563.20

And then we find out how much the extra hours will cost. (You're charged
$1.65 for every hour over 300)

steven@broken:~$ echo 'scale=2;((168*4)-300)*1.65' | bc
613.80

Add $60 for the monthly fee, and you've got yourself a $1,237 invoice from
ihug, for one month.

Phillipus, keep dreaming, you have absolutely no hope at all in the next
year to get the kind of access you want for $90 a month.

<mathieu99> sid seems much harder to setup than stable!
<Vakor> mathieu99: that's why stable is called stable, and sid isn't.
