Re: Comcast HSI Internet only Price If that's accurate, then that sucks. How is it possible that by 2002 ameritech wasn't a major DSL player when Comcast entered Chicago?

Not disputing you, but I'd think Philly or Boston, DC/Baltimore, would be bigger markets than Chicago. |

Lincolnshire, IL | said by HBFlyer :....How is it possible that by 2002 ameritech wasn't a major DSL player when Comcast entered Chicago?.... This is really getting OT...... Ameritech had some disastrous investments in the 90's which put them on cash lockdown mode in order to groom for a sale right when DSL was taking off- late 90's~2000.
My town of Lincolnshire IL in the middle of Chicago suburbia, has begged for DSL for well over a decade but never got it. Because of this, Comcast HSI is in >80% of households here. |

The SF Bay Area is a pretty big one for Comcast too. Sacramento would have to be as well, though smaller than the Bay Area of course.

They share chicago with rcn, I would be surprised if chicago is actually comcasts biggest market area. Phillie used to be there biggest market and they didnt share it with anyone. They do share it with fios now tho so who knows. Im pretty sure LA has comcast and i would expect LA To be the biggest now since fios came to phillie. |

Comcast has a much smaller presence in the L.A. area than in the Bay Area. Time Warner and Charter are the biggies there.
