	In the fine print I believe you will find there is also a usage charge
either per minute or per megabyte, after some relatively small period of 
free time/data, whereas the BCnet connection is "nailed up" (i.e. it is all
yours for 24 * 7 for that price). The UBC service is also limited to UBC
faculty and staff (as is the equivelent service at SFU) and is not as far 
as I am aware available to the general public (as the BCnet one is).
