[kictanet] Free PC and cheap Internet for SMEs/Home Users

Wed Apr 25 08:28:57 EAT 2007

Thnx Lucy,

I want to get this right!

1) Am not entittled to stay with you one year,if I have my own PC? is this
right? but the cost is averagely 6k per month?

2) I have to sign a one year contract if you give me a "free" PC...does this
apply to only 1 PC or I can ask for as many as my modem can connect?

A contract binds, so it will not matter how am paying,but what Alunite will
expect is 72k at the end of the year. Unfortunately I dont see how a home
user with one PC is going to benefit or call it "cheap"...you must be doing
some "serious" business online to accumlate this amount,dont you think so?

3) this price is for what speed?  32/128, 64/256?, 128/512?

Kind Regards,
