| | Tired of comcast crying Bunch of hypocrites here. You have no problem with comcast taking over more and more companies and gaining a monopoly but those bad, bad phone companies, right. I know, how about you hypocrites demand comcast open there coax to competitors? I suppose you would be against that huh? Yes i know its not practical or even possible at the current time, but the point is valid.
What the hell has comcast ever done for anyone except raise rates every year by aprox 30% and make those stupid exclusive deals with subdivisions. While you shit on a company like at&t who brought us (just to name a few);

What have they done SINCE they were split up? All those items were done by the ORIGINAL AT&T (Bell Lab) not by the current company who has acquired that Corporate Name just to try to make use of the real AT&T's accomplishments (as you just tried to do with your list of Bell Lab's creations). | |
| | | | Re: Tired of comcast crying Well the problem is they were split up because they were gouging the consumer in order to support all that. MCI and Judge Green knew that this was bad thinking and promptly put a stop to all that creativity. | |

There is a nice ad campaign for AT&T against Cable and Dish/Direct TV "We invented cable" and "We invented satellite" | |

CWCville USA | Ok Einstein, please explain to me how we're hypocrites.
Here's YOUR logic:
Some users of DSLReports hate AT&T, which is a big corporation.
Some users of DSLReports like Comcast (according to you, frankly I see very little of that), which is also a big corporation.
Even though the users badmouthing AT&T aren't the same ones supporting Comcast (are they?), you feel this makes all users of DSLreports hypocrites.
You know, you're what Bob and Doug McKenzie would refer to as a "Hozer", why don't you take off? Eh? | |
