No matter, a new Austel SDL may only be a matter of 6-8 weeks away (if USR
were being truthful when I spoke with them yesterday).

Chris Robinson signed up for their 8 hour freebie deal, and is considerably
less than impressed with their extremely slow transfer rates.  Unless there
is a vast improvement (and a dramatic price reduction), he won't be
continuing with the contract.  Might sign up myself though, just to get the
free 8 hours.
