Hmmm...

I hope this doesn't mean they are going to turn into a crappy company again. I find irony in the fact that AT&T Broadband owned what is now Comcast in my area, but under their ownership, the city was going to "pull the plug" on them because they had so many problems. Now the other day, I'm driving down the road and I see an "AT&T Broadband" bill board and thought "I doubt this city will ever recover from those days.". If you lived in Jacksonville when AT&T Broadband was here, you'd know why I find that bill board amusing. So I guess ol' Ed is gonna retire now, and collect lots of money for work he watched others do. Nice job Ed, have a great life.

Totally different company. ATT Broadband was part of the old AT&T (long distance, etc.). SBC was still Southwestern Bell when AT&T was in the cable biz.

All of which illustrates what a dumbass move it was for them to adopt the old AT&T name and logo.

Exactly my point... Thats why I said "this town isn't ready".. They shot their own foot off trying to keep the same name... I would have preferred anything else, including SBCAT&T... That would have been a cool name...
