 | at&t dead? I remember during the divestiture Southwestern Bell Telephone was the one baby bell that many thought would not last. It was too small and too regional to make it. Low and behold it has now grown to the largest communications provider in the United States and receives yearly the moniker of "Most Admired" by national publications. Anyone who thinks they should ready themselves for a downward spiral is a fool. While he is not perfect Ed Whitacre has established a dominate, world wide provider. And to all the haters, Verizon is not the only one running fiber to the premise. In Round Rock, TX, 3 fiber neighborhoods have popped up within the last few months. |
