Re: And so the end is near....
I think the chances of Yahoo! buying AOL just took a nosedive in the past few days, thanks to corporate politics... My guess is that if anyone's going to buy the non-dialup portion of AOL, it'll be Microsoft, who would probably be better off dumping the moribund MSN brands in favor of the better-known AOL (at least in the US, worldwide could be different) |

Chicago, IL | Why not just merge the dial up with Net Zero (yes, they too are still around). They could be net-aol...or AOL-Zero!

| NetZero (now merged with Juno to create United Online) is getting out of the DialUp business too- they own Classmates.com and FTD, among others. I've seen it rumored that Earthlink is hoping to create some sort of uber single dial-up giant by buying NetZero/Juno and AOL's access division. |
