..true. And then you should see a nice trend up on all boxes, over a

..and the big broadcaster guys here (Norway) are pushing to kill FM for
DAB radio of all things, and a nationwide terrestrial "one way" network
for it and TV. Politics. And without a parliament seat, this is

router, pointers on routing of a static net behind a cheap "loose gun
adsl router on dhcpl", "dynamic dns"-style or somesuch?
