Hi, I was going to be relocated to Melbourne from the US and was wondering if it was common for people to have fast access internet (DLS/Cable) in their homes/apartments? or do most people go to an internet cafe?

Sorry, we're a bit behind down here. What's an internet?

umm can someone post a serious reply? i am about to buy a new computer, but if fast internet is not that common in one's home, then i'd rather buy a laptop.

Of course we have cable/ADSL :P

Hey Gongo, have a look here -

www.whirlpool.net.au

It's all about Australian broadband with forums etc.

Just stay away from Telstra bigpond for dsl

yeh we do gongo

its just a bit more expensive then you guys pay for it in the US

Gongo I'm on 512 unlimited (no bandwidth caps, time caps, speed limiting etc) for around $80 AUD a month. Not too shabby.

There's a few good isps offering cable/adsl.

Take a look at TPG & IINET. Just google for australian sites.
