    Random subject however :D

    Today BT (British Telecom - internet people) have annouced (according to my dad) that certain exchange points acorss the UK will be upgraded...

    The one im on atm has a max of 4MB or something pathetic, however by spring 2011 this will be upgraded to 24MB (I think its MB's. Meh, something like that). So yeah, and thats when our current contract runs out.

    QUICKER (still shit) INTERNET FTW :D

    EDIT:
    Found the artical

    God dammit! I'm not near any of those places! Anyway it's not the speed of the internet that annoys me, it's the price they ask, what a rip off...
