Not strictly network related, but to keep it roughly on-topic I would imagine that the $700m that Fairfax is paying to acquire TradeMe will buy a few beers.

Anyone know who Fairfax use for the connectivity? Might we see TM go offline again as corporate IT flexes its institutional stupidity and de-invents the wheel vis peering?
