If the past teaches us anything, it is
"Never underestimate the technological needs and advances of the future", as aptly demonstrated by these historical quotes from some of the World's smartest people.

Hopefully, by the time the next election comes around, Malcolm and the Coalition will have woken up to fact than 12Mbps won't cut it today, let alone in 10 years time.
