Sorry for all the posts, but this has really got my goat(I think thats the
phrase) Telstra Bigpond customers will now notice that Gamearena has Removed
ALL of their linux distributions from their website, no longer offering them
as free downloads, please anyone who has telstra bigpond I urge you to send
them an E-mail and express your dissatisfaction at their decision(Their
excuse for removing them?, they say they want Gamearena to be for "gamers"
only, and yet they offer linux dedicated servers for download, but offer
nothing to run these servers on.)

Their real excuse?, money, of course, they want all of us to pay extra per
month for unmetered downloads from the planetmirror website, just so we can
get our linux distributions that in the past we got for free.

Telstra's value for money just got worse(if it could?)
