You should be getting emails and letters explaining just that.

I don't think our MCI T1's and T3's are going anywhere. 😛

Cheers!

No need to be laughing on my account. In anticipation of service ending on November 30th, I've already switched from Charter@Home over to Charter Pipeline which, apart from a few slowdowns and e-mail problems in this first week it's been up, is doing just fine for my $50-ish a month. No dial-up in my near future, thanks to my local cable company's efforts to continue broadband service to its customers.

Really mature. Don't worry about me, chump, I'll be fine.

AT&T better win the buyout!:|

PS Viper, I thank you not for the rude wishes

And if you live in Connecticut or Long Island, Cablevision isn't going anywhere... so Optimum Online will always be there. OptiOnline is sooooooooooo fast, I miss it, it's faster than the T1 here at my college.

Either AT@T gets access to all of Excite's assets or I change my e-mail address and migrate to AT@T. One way or the other I'll still have cable.

ATT already owns my line I have been paying their subsidary Insight for 2 months now ($16 dollars more!!!) I hope that means I am in the clear I severed my @home e-mail due to the nasty virus' been getting so they have no way to contact me but by snail mail. I am not paying my bill till next week is all I know!
