Nope, but I don't get all that computer spec jargon anyway - what's the mistake?

Re: Offnet ntl ADSL BB

The minimum required memory for running win2k or XP is 128mb ram- the details say that 64meg with 2k or xp will be sufficient.

Oh and i have also noticed that it does not give the requirement for hard disk space on the pc... and the ** next to the usb in the mac section is not explained.

Not a very good start IMO!

Have you emailed the relevant person to get them to amend it?

The is because I already have ADSL at my address, so the exchange is most definately enabled.

Every other xDSL ISP can provide there except ntl it would seem.

So the was deserved!

nope... i have no idea who the relevant person would be... The only contact us link of the page eventually takes you back to ntlhome contact us; if i filled that in it would be directed back to tech support (and possibly even me!) and we don't deal with freedom products (or at least we haven't been told anything about dealing with freedom bb yet ).

I will investigate when i go into work...

The associate directory is a good place to look... Use the different parameters in the advanced search... You can always find the MD of Freedom and work downwards...
