that I am being ripped off because Vic Govt makes us go through VicOne and pay
exorbitant premiums on what would other wise be a much cheaper commercial ISP
supply (just look at the prices of private individual contracts !!!!).
They do this to cross subsidise the VicGove IT infrastructure agreement in the
pocket of Telstra.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>I was wondering what is the annual sub of
Netscape as this is considerable less than we pay with myinternet? Also does the
plan provide students with individual email accounts?</FONT></DIV>
