Re: What about the money SkiWi acknowledges they owe Qwest

If QWest sold off the portions that the others want, they would not survive as those few big markets supple the needed cash to subsidize the other operations, which would go dark within a year. QWest is small, they cannot keep running when their customers do not pay them. They had no choice here and the PUC should be going after SkiWi, oh but SkiWi is not regulated by the PUC, QWest is screwed!

New Mexico is probably not one of the markets that wouldn't be purchased. The areas the other Telco's don't want is Montana (one of the nations largest states with the smallest population), Idaho, Wyoming and probably Nevada as well. Utah, Colorado, Oregon, Washington, New Mexico and Arizona would probably be sold rather easily if Qwest was interested in piecing out the company.

Verizon has already offered to buy the more populated states from Qwest. I believe their offer was for Washington, Oregon, Arizona and Colorado.

QWest is not been sucked up by the big Bells because there is too much geopgraphy and not as many subscribers. For New Mexico to replace QWest with some other would be almost impossible... Maybe Timewarner, Comcast??? LOL
