I agree, but being an ISP and having stressed NYNEX to it technical limit
on simple problems I don't think we will have to much trouble competing
on a service basis. We will lose on price but we can beat them hands
down on responsiveness and customer service. Check out my signature, it
has my phone number on it. You can call and speak to the person in
charge of the Internet Division here ON THE PHONE!. Try to call the
NYNEX president. People WILL pay more for quality, look at BMW, Lexus
and Jaguar.
