		This is because Eircom is still run by civil service
dickhead
		accountants who see a man with a van and a screwdriver and
are
		convinced it has to be charged. The concept of free
installation and
		making money from traffic has never occurred to them.

		Wait a few weeks until BT gets off its butt here. There is
going to be
		one almighty telecom war, and I for one hope Eircom gets
eaten for
		breakfast.
