[Year 12 IPM] Broadband comparisons...

[Walsh, John P]

Yes...but what a perfect activity of work for VCE..."Research and report
on ISP deals with these constraints (price per month, speed, contract
term) and report back with a proposal for the best deal. Include
advantages and disadvantages of each provider (support, hardware
provision etc.)" Best deal presented to class wins a mars bar ....and
can sign me up for the deal...saves me working out what would be best
for home.

Ummm...I could see a unit of work out of this...

But keep in mind that DEET has 'approved' providers who meet certain 
basic standards and criteria.  You can't choose any ol' ISP for a 
(government) school.
