</div>You need to think further up the stack.<br>
<br>
How many Australian ISPs properly support v6? Maybe 5% of them?<br>
<br>
How many Australian hosting providers support v6? 5%?<br>
<br>
How many Australian domain registrars support v6?<br>
<br>
How many Australian DNS providers fully support v6?<br>
<br>
How many Australian written applications still only accept v4 address<br>
in forms?<br>
<br>
How many government departments and businesses are still running on<br>
early versions of XP? Heck, I was at a retail outlet the other day and<br>
the POS app looked to be a DOS based!<br>
<br>
It may be true that the vendor kit now works. But by the numbers, the<br>
humans, IT departments and the services they manage are definitely<br>
still in the early adopter stage.<br>
