Second that.
Anyone who believed this one would work probably was sure the Eagles were winning the Super Bowl "Big Game" this year....

Well, since they put such a high value on it, no wonder nobody wanted to take it.
Just another of a long line of punch lines from the jokers at Earthlink.

Re: Lets all chip in and buy it
said by PhoenixDown  :I'll start it off at $100 Why would you even consider buying it when Earthlink is willing to give it to anyone who will take it over? 
Of course, if you took it over, you'd also have to take the contract that goes with it.  |

| The City of Filthadelphia could have taken it over for free. But they didn't want to pay the cost of operating it. And small wonder, since it cost plenty to run and brings in little to no revenue. And with hardly anybody using it, there were no prospects anyone else would want it.

Wasn't this one Hizzoner Mayor Street's big plans to turn the city around?
Maybe fixing the schools or fighting the murder rate might have been a better use of his time.

Re: ....
really..you think the USA is an epic failure? You may diagree with foreign policy or even domestic policy but as far as I am concerned (and most historians) the US is the epitome of the SUCCESS of modern civilization and continues to be the WORLD LEADER for most of the important metrics while basically being the linchpin for the worlds financial system. FYI the whole world doesnt hate us, I have been to many countries recently and have many foreign friends and they still love the US although they may disagree with our Foreign policy. Take that shit somewhere else! Maybe daily KOS or some leftie pinko commie blog, f**king loser |

| millions?
Whats shocking is, is that Earthlink will dismantle the network, whats the point in that? Do those 802.11B APs have any resale value?
And why the hell does it cost millions to operate each year? Are they feeding the electricity to the APs from burning $100 bills inside a steam boiler? How much is a 100mbit ethernet line and $1*num of APs of electricity a year? |
