Why 2mbps? → #

I still don't understand why people need a 2mbps internet connection to be included in society.
Surely all that is required is a reasonable POTS or ISDN connection to a remote desktop hosted elsewhere.

In Muswell Hillbillies force BT to move broadband boxes
Rather than a 28.8K modem, how about giving them a V.90 modem, just to give them a little hope... and then put a DACS on the line.........

In Kind soul donates Claymore mine to charity
SuperTim - In answer to your question, Claymore's have been about since the late 1950's.
An 18 year old Marine could have used them in 1965 and now be old enough to work in a charity shop.............. To them, it might quite literally be a blast from the past.
