I signed up with Smart Telecom early December, I was hooked up finally by mid January, broadband was working – but no dialtone on the phone line Two weeks ago close to midnight my net connection went dead and when I checked there was no voltage coming from the phone socket. So finally last night after a call to Smart almost every day I’m back up and running! If things with Smart stabilize from now on in – I’ll forgive all – 3mb down 256kb up and no bandwidth cap.

The first thing I did was upgrade my Dapper Drake install. Helluva lota updates in two weeks! And guess what – some kind soul has put compiz in the universe repository… Wobbly windows and cube goodness! It really is slick and the F12 zoom feature is very genuinely useful. It all made me a bit woozy though – looking at those windows womble about the screen.
