[bbc] Some 43% of adults who currently do not have internet access would remain disconnected even if they were given a free PC and broadband connection.
The statistic, part of research conducted by regulator Ofcom will make depressing reading for some.
But it is not all bad news. Ofcom's survey found that one in five adults who don't have the internet plan to go online in the next six months.
17 million Britons - 30% of the population - are currently offline.
The government is keen to get more people online, as it moves more of its services on to the web.
Free broadband won't entice all
