Truck rolls, my foot. I've never had Compuserve or Prodigy or AOL pull up to my driveway. Why the difference between these models? Why indeed. I've been trying to get a handle on this anywhere I can and thought I'd put it forth here as well. What is is that is taking these people so long to eliminate the truck roll? Is it rusting connectors? Is it software install? Provisioning? What the heck is that and how could it possibly so hard to automate? I'm at a loss how they can find this tolerable. Regarding eliminating the black wire: 1) Would fiber eliminate truck rolls? Somehow I doubt it. Thats not even including the obvious fact that you either run the last 100 yards over that nasty coax stuff or you need to install new wires. 2) How much are ATHM engineers spending energy on the low level physical issues of coax? If its a lot then your point is very valid. Not however if most of their energy is aimed at higher level issues beyond the wire (the wire is supposed to be run by the MSO after all) Eric
