It's not so much the difficulty - or lack thereof - of setup, as what happens when, 3 months into your contract, they change the deal completely and tell you it's your fault for wanting to leave. Or the mails servers go down for a _month_... or the connection drops out for a couple of days every month - etc. As you seem to have the option of a very long contract, or an even longer one, there's little you can do about it if they stuff you about. Then again, I'm a /really/ bitter ex-Bigpond Cable customer. Craig Ringer
