I live in a country village in Northern Ireland, My local exchange is
currently running at 18% registrations for DSL trigger :( so no chance for<= BR> me, unless BT decide to install those 16 port DSLAM devices). But the
development I live in has around 40 houses, there *might* be 10 people in there considering a broadband connection. The difficulty will be the cost o= f
a BB connection to the Net, unless an ISP would allow the cisco DSL thingy<= BR> over a 64K LL.
