Big deal....

That would cost me between $150 and $75 in download charges. What's another 
$1.50?   

And it would be twice as much if I, like most people in PNG, was using dial-
up and also paying phone connection charges (I'm one of "lucky" ones who can
get a 128Kb radiolink for only $200 per month - plus of course the $0.30 per
Mb )
