God you're a pain, Kush. Pasting such a large scale image screws up the display's horizontal scrolling!

Not if you have a 4K screen.

I wish. I don't have 4K display and even if I did I'd probably have to set the scaling to 400% or something just to be able to see what's on the damn screen!

Not so funny on my old 1K lappy, even the reply box was off the RH side. :(

You need to add their phone line @ circa £17 per month, which makes that a lot of money for a shocking service...

Fits fine @ 1080p with room to spare ;)

Sure - but many if not most people have a partial window for their browser and it's a pain to have to do the extra step, indeed perhaps obscuring something you want to look at the same time.

Large images are an unnecessary pain.

Never seen anyone do this except on a Mac where you can't maximize easily and on 4K where it's pointless.

Interesting to see in Kush's opening post that 30Mb is mentioned. Wonder if that is going to be reintroduced?

I'm guessing - but why would VM want to introduce a tier that is lower than the headline speed of BT Infinity Option 1?

That a 200 meg tier is coming seems certain to me.

Oh I don't know, perhaps because the whole reason 30Mb ever existed to begin with was in order to compete with BT Infinity option 1?

Wonder if they might bring it back as a lower priced option to try and compete with the competion's ADSL packages? Kush's post quotes the price as £12.50 a month which is a great price for fibre BB and just a few quid more than some of the ADSL packages on the market.
