I remember science at school and results would have decimal places.<br /><br />Is the value of 80 calculated from science, with provable evidence? I doubt it.<br /><br />So back to 2 "meg" being a minimum... That's rather accurate isn't it? Is that the exact speed that BBC iPlayer HD requires? No? Well what is it the speed of? And which direction? With a 1-1 contention ratio?! ISP's pay (or did when I worked at one) tens of thousands for dedicated leased lines.<br /><br />Polititians should stop fucking with the private sector. Or at least, if they do, know what the hell they're talking about!Vodzurkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03525449555645820285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3993498847203183398.post-43631179903543340172010-12-01T12:30:17.324+00:002010-12-01T12:30:17.324+00:00Partly because you can't.

Also, the concept of access to the Internet is a wooly one technically as well.<br /><br />It's an aspiration of a good quality minimum but with no way to make a clean metric against which to measure that, yet they went and picked 2Mb/s final line speed and think that says what they are after.RevKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12369263214193333422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3993498847203183398.post-89267624545109575712010-12-01T12:28:30.550+00:002010-12-01T12:28:30.550+00:00In my dealings with elected officials, I note that...In my dealings with elected officials, I note that very few of them are trusted with making cups of tea...The Driverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04561063207545406257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3993498847203183398.post-80281691193174566612010-12-01T12:23:35.114+00:002010-12-01T12:23:35.114+00:00Why don't you propose your own wording of it a...Why don't you propose your own wording of it and show her?Andrew Murphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05559103554821540335noreply@blogger.com
