“as a percentage of all occupied private dwellings”

Ever stack a report title to make it look like something has improved for everyone?

Does that mean we have to endure more people saying “epic fail”?

Now if only they could rip out the copper in Gungahlin and slam down a nice bit of fiber to every home, we’d really be happy about it too….

Gettig rid of the damned pair gains would help too!!

I sooooo agree with you Mothy.

Sounds like Canberra is still the porn capital of Australia.

owning broadband is not nerdy, posting on a webforum is.

Doing my bit! I don’t own a TV and my radio’s not great… but iinet gives me free ABC and a plethora of radio stations!

Plus there’s all the uploading sexy photos to Facebook and flirting over Skype.

Would I be less likely to be online in NSW? Well I find when I go there that I tend to just talk to my friends instead of facebooking them while I’m sitting right next to them…
