Re: Hmmm...

...I seem to remember several years ago, in the early days of DSL, how "The Bells" used to drag their feet when asked to fix a problem by re-sellers, and the only internet access option they offered was a $1500+/Mo T-1 line. The rationale at the time was the expense of the infrastructure was being unfairly borne by "The Bells". Since that time, "The Bells" have come to offer affordable DSL packages due to competition, since they were no longer in the position say the masses should "...(let them) eat (T-1) cake". Apple learned this exclusivity lesson the hard way as well. Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it...
