Re: Not that Karl doesn't do a good job, but... My website partner lives up in VT. His home service is Wildblue. Which rhymes with "Ewwwww!". His office service is Fairpoint. At this stage, Fairpoint is only marginally better than Wildblue, especially as regards ability to pull an IP and get to websites. He's started working out of home, because Wildblue is more reliable. The sad thing is, on the spreadsheet of number crunchers, that appears as a perfectly competitive and healthy broadband area. |

| Well, what do we reliably know about number-crunchers, these days?
They are not about objective results and answers. They are about ledgerdemane, cheap tricks of the parlor mesmerist, making the numbers dance, sing and play the guitar, so the CEO gets the news he wants to get and his quarterly guidance calls to analysts and SEC reports are placed in the best possible light. Truth is considered inimical to goals and objectives and raises holy hell on risk management.
You can bet that same ethos exists in these broadband penetration reports as well. |
