Re: CoC & ROI

The issue that holds this back is ROI and what they consider acceptable profit.

You and I might think 10% profit after all expenses is great... but who knows what they might have targeted. They may be sitting back until it's 50% profit or more.... which means we could be waiting awhile.

now that I can log in... If you look at the FiOS project and how fast the price is going up.. Just imagine Comcast put in the same position..
