Broadband - lets get this in perspective...

One of the guys from the Moscow office came in yesterday. His english was really good, but had holes, and so when he said "I have a gigabit connection at home" we quickly picked him up.

"You mean megabit?"

"No, Gigabit. It is our new service. Everyone has it. It costs about thirty pounds a month"

BT, NTL, Telewest, you have so much to learn...

This article appeared on the BBC yesterday so give it a few years and maybe we will too...

BTW... Loved the talk at NotCon. Short, informative, to the point, amusing. Everything it needed to be (unlike others <yawn>)

I recommend this book by Richard Whitehead very highly along a similar line.

Ditto the talk, I only caught the last five minutes but was so impressed I went out and ... downloaded the powerpoints.

Mike, you have read Peopleware, haven't you?

Andy, I had not but I will because you make me feel guilty with your question mark... ;]
