All he is saying is that NTL should encourage people to connect via ethernet where possible instead of USB. We've discussed already at some length the pitfalls of NTL engineers installing NICs in customer PCs. But GC makes clear that while he thinks NTL offering free NICs might be a good idea in itself, he accepts they would have to totally disassociate themselves from the install side of it. Nothing stupid there at all.
He said in his post "then why do SACMs have a USB port?". That is what I was refering to.
