Hi John, There’s no certainty the costs to consumers of buying a broadband service delivered over the NBN will go down by mid year this year. This is despite NBN Co’s announcement today that the wholesale prices it charges ISPs have been revamped.
If the NBN really is Australia's biggest ever infrastructure project and vitally important to the nation's future, one would expect the minister in charge and his opposition counterpart to react when a furore of the sort caused by NBN Co chief Bill Morrow erupts. Instead all we hear are crickets. Samsung Group heir Lee Jae-yong has been formally arrested on charges of bribery in connection with an influence-peddling scandal that has led to a vote for impeachment of the country's president, Park Geun-hye. A zero-day exploit for all versions of Windows was released two weeks ago, but Microsoft does not appear to be seized of this, announcing that it will release security updates which were meant for this month on 14 March. Melbourne IT has become the owner of Outware Systems, acquiring the remaining 24% of the latter about six months before it planned to do so. In the days leading up to 29 July 2016, PCs running Windows were frantically updated to Windows 10. But since then the pace has fallen off and even though the total number of PCs running the latest avatar of Microsoft's operating system 18 months after release is about 400 million there is no reason to rejoice. And of course, there's plenty more so for all the news visit www.itwire.com. Have a great day!
