taking it back

Ok... ok... I was wrong. I take it back.

Telecom still sucks. Yes - I have been throttled by my data cap, but that's no excuse for the speeds I'm getting. Surfing the web now feels like I'm back with my 386 Wang (yes, really) on a 14.4k modem. I'm supposed to get dialup speeds, which means 56k.

So, I wasn't surprised to read that 42 of Telecom's exchanges are at full capacity and they have no intention on upgrading them in a hurry. Excuse me? What kind of arrogant complacency leads a company into not rushing cabinet upgrades in order to increase their customer base. If ever one needed proof that Telecom acts like a monopoly...
