News, March 2004More NewsA few more news items and where to find more news about Spain: 24% of Spanish homes have access to the InternetAccording to recent official surveys by the National Statistics Institute in December 2002 the number of people with access to the Internet was only 17.4%, but a year later had grown to 24%. By the end of July '03, the number of ADSL lines was 1,343,823 with Madrid and Barcelona way ahead, emphasising the gap between town and country in technological advance. (El Mundo, TVE) 43% of Spanish computer users hit their machine when it fails to work as they would like. Principal problem seems to be the mouse. P4S happy with first year
 Demonstrators in Madrid Once again we thank our visitors for your interest and concern for Spain. In January the number of visits reached the 2000 level for the third month in a row, despite a considerable and understandable drop in visits over Christmas. Compared to the 2,500 visits in January to the English language pages of the official news service of the evangelical churches, ACpress, we are indeed delighted. As at 25th, March is once again topping records, heading for about 2500 visits, perhaps partly due to the sad events which have ocurred. The total number of visits for our first year -to end February '04- (which got off to an understandably slow start until after the summer) was over 13,000. Thank you! Your response and concerns are also of interest to us.
