It would be in Microsoft's interest to buy into North Point. ISP's will have the security to deploy their MSN and enterprise services more efficiently, not as a liability.

I agree North Point has solid business service and great customer relations. Whom ever buys in with North Point will gain solid footing in the Internet territory.

It looks like a good time for Microsoft to walk in. Let them solve all our problems.

ROFLMAO! "Solve all our problems?" Oh yeah, just what I want: my existing platform-independent, reliable DSL connection held hostage to Microsoft's tender mercies. NOT!

Buy it Microsoft, buy Northpoint! Save our DSL lines and we will be eternally grateful and we will buy all your software.

<sniff...> Hmmm... Do I smell a troll?

Save Northpoint, Microsoft, keep my MSN Highspeed account afloat.

Gag. MSN. I think I'd rather Army Of Lusers. And I think seppuku before either.

Maybe Bill Gates might read this!

I'm sure he would be gratified. Unless... <sniff> <sniff...> I'd swear I smell a troll...

Considering the reports I've been reading about MSN's implementation of DSL, you may want to reconsider that hope.
