Steve,

They sure can't afford to cut any customer service personnel, or sales , or marketing, or internal web development and admin!

With the Worldcom deal, do you think they would just dump the technical people they have supporting their modems, or would those folks become de facto Worldcom employees?

Of course if they were eliminated, those associated costs would just become a long-term chargeback to AOL as part of the service Worldcom agreed to provide to AOL as an ISP provider. But you can almost bet AOL won't spin it that way, at least not initially.
