Freeserve boss doesn't have broadband at home

Opts for dial-up instead

Freeserve boss Eric Abensur doesn't have a broadband connection at home. Instead, he uses a standard dial-up connection to access the Net.

The admission came as the Freeserve chief exec addressed a Trade and Industry Select Committee inquiry into, of all things, broadband.

In a statement Freeserve said: "Eric uses broadband all day at work. Freeserve AnyTime is a fantastic product and it suits his Internet needs at home." ®
