Exactly right.
How this for an idea:
1) 2x manned ships, reduced cargo requirements due to 2 with enlarged engines/fuel capacity.
2) 2x unmanned ship for cargo such as food, water, camping equipment sent prior to manned departure
3) 1x unmanned ship such as the pogo-ing rocket being tested at the moment for return journey.
They are looking at 2020/30 before this goes live so there is plenty of time.
MAAH
The majority of broadband users don't understand the difference between M/Bits and M/Bytes. users expect "upto 8Mbits" to mean 8 megabytes and complain that they are only seeing 300Kbytes download speed on a 8meg line but actually what they are getting is very close to the 3.1M/Bit mark.
If the ISPs were honest by removing the confusion and said we can provide a 1 megaBYTE (8M/Bit) connection then their sales would plummet and would start to lose revenue.
What also concerns some users is that in comparison, German broadband ISP are able to push to the maximum of the paid for bandwidth without throttles.
