Exactly, people are trained to think of network services as a fixed cost. This completely turns that on it's ear.
Network costs have never been fixed on the back end though. It is only to the end user that is has been sold that way.
Meaning the customer as always gotten screwed?
That's a mixed message. This really isn't fair to network providers. In one case we are saying that the company is evil and the customer is screwed for the ISP not providing a fixed cost. Then in the next breath saying that they are evil and screwing the customer for having done what was wanted in the previous post.
In both cases, the ISP and customers agree to terms. No one is getting screwed. One system might be generally better than the other, but we can't keep claiming that any action of an ISP is evil no matter what they do.

It is so sad that they don't do those anymore . But that was a different era. Hard to believe that those days are already past. So many young IT pros will never know what it was like attending that stuff all of the time. There was so much great training at those things.

It's cold and the snow is coming down here up on the farm. We are all hanging out at my dad's house right now.

Doing some manual SQL queries.

Flash sale on Rosetta Stone today, just $199 for a full five level language course. That's $300 off! We are buying the one on Spanish right now. We are moving to Spain in several weeks so it is a good time to be getting ready for that. I've been using DuoLingo over the last few days and I play Trivia Crack in Spanish already but a more formal course is a good idea.

My dad has an Ancestry.com account now and he and his sister managed to tack the family back to Bern, CF so far as far back as 1695. I'm hoping that we can get a few hundred more years out of that. Bern, in theory, will have very good municipal records.

My aunt's Ancenstry work has gotten some of the family back in the mid-1500s now! Now we are into "discovering new stuff" already.
