What you mean like building a 3 lane freeway 10 years ago, instead of 
shutting down half the freeway for 2 years whilst building an extra lane?

Or like building multilane roadways into new development areas today 
at a price that is sensible, rather than waiting till 250,000 people 
move into the area transiting via a horse track and paying 500 times 
the price to Macquarie bank?

Oh ... sorry :)

Don't worry Stil, MacBank will quite happily invest into the 
broadband world for us poor peasants today to ensure that in the 
future we can pay more to have the upgrades :)
