Re: Bigger, stronger, -cough- faster

They're glutton for punishment. They told their employees if they make their profit targets that they will get to remove the software.

most companies have aol on thier computers. employees (not employers) install it. Last company i worked for used aim to communicate throughout the office and people had aol installed all over by employees..... and this was at the noc level, it came in very handy if you wanted to see cnn or sports stuff and junk from work without having to pay that realpass crap.

on the otherhand, you'll be suprised how many executives with six figure salaries use aol at work.

That’s just cruel and unusual punishment. I’m pretty sure something like that is in breach of the Geneva Convention, or count as some kind of War Crime.

It wasn't installed in the office, it was on customer's machines. I think it was their first run at Internet access. I don't know why they used it, but I didn't stick around to find out either.
