The figures that Jorge posted showed that you were half right!  US and Canada are out in
front but UK and Sweden are indeed doing well per capita.  germany lags a bit but France and
Italy and most other countrie are way behind (populations of UK, France and italy all
55million, germany 80million).

Our Tony Blair is saying UK businesses must embrace internet or die.  Funny that he cannot
even use a computer - they showed him on TV using one finger and taking ages to order flowers
over the net for his wife!
