[clug] Light entertainment for this morning (NBN)

I don't know enough to have formed a firm opinion about the NBN yet -
opinion seems to be divided amongst telco analysts so far.

I do know that if Piers Akerman wrote a column telling me that water was wet
I would want a second opinion (and I'd expect him to blame it on Rudd
somehow)

My understanding is that the government will be selling it's stake in the
network as soon as possible.

Speaking as someone currently jumping through some remarkable stupid hoops
to get a naked ADSL connection I can't see how having the government in
charge of the wholesale network can be worse than having Telstra in charge.

Cheers,
Neill
