BT has set itself ambitious targets for broadband in the UK which include selling consumers a whole internet package - with the PC thrown in as well.
The telecoms giant intends to dominate the broadband market in Britain.
It is determined to connect five million UK consumers to broadband by 2006, generating net revenues of £490m by 2005. BT hopes the all-in package will help it achieve its goals.
The idea is that an engineer will come and install a Toshiba PC which, together with the technical support and other services, will be part of a monthly fee.
More details will be announced in the autumn when the package launches.
