    90% penetration ? SOAPBOX !!!

    Christian Graus Driven to the arms of OSX by Vista. "Iam doing the browsing center project in vb.net using c# coding" - this is why I don't answer questions much anymore. Oh, and Microsoft doesn't want me to.

      Painful :omg:

      I still remember having to write your own code in FORTRAN rather than be a cut and paste merchant being pampered by colour coded Intellisense - ahh proper programming - those were the days :)

          So if I was still using Virgin Broadband and I was 90% penetrated does that mean that I am no longer allowed to use it?

            Can Virgin have 90% penetration and still be called Virgin?

                              That actually makes it worse! If the Providers have now gone round and penetrated 90% of active internet users, will they sue? Will there be a baby boom?

                                      It's hard to imagine that many people being "serviced" at once.

                                          Verizon FIOS offers them MSN and Yahoo as a choice of email providers. I would probably pick Yahoo if my cable company raises their rates and cuts service again but I may just call and give Comcast the option to give me a large discount instead loosing me as a customer. I know they are just as eager to do this as cell phone companies.
