I'm not the smartest cookie but 8.8 billion is a lot of money.

Nearly $420,000 per resident? They have about 21 million blokes. 99% of them live in Sydney or Melbourne. Are they each going to be given a house and a dingo with this broadband?

I hope my math is correct.

No, your math is off. That comes to $419/resident & not $420,000/resident.

Conroy faces one of his greatest policy tests in his first year of government: delivering Labor's promise to begin delivering high-speed internet to 98 per cent of the population by the end of this year.
No matter who gets the contract, no company or group of companies will be able to meet that ridiculous target and timetable. Minister Conroy and his Labor party made a promise that is a flat out lie and impossible to meet.
