Testimonials from the COX@HOME web page:
"I feel that cable modems are absolute cutting-edge technology not only from my own personal standpoint, but also that of the numerous friends and associates who have been fortunate enough to view the speed and serviceability of the set-up via my participation in the Cox high speed trial. I do not need a separate phone line.and the learning curve (is) well within tolerable range for something I see as being the wave of the future for the cable industry. I do not own stock in Cox, or any other cable company, but will be tempted to consider such a purchase in anticipation of this product being offered to the rest of the "surfing" public in the Cox subscriber area." -- Cynthia Stockwell "[Before Cox@Home] I wasted hours trying to get access through regular Internet service providers..." Nancy Monthofer "I've been a user of Prodigy, America Online, corporate internal networks, a local IP Internet company, and the Cox cable network. I've found the initial Cox network to outperform the other networks in ease of use, support, and availability. As with any network, Cox will need to manage its resources to provide a highly available and easy to use network, which may be difficult to do with fast growth. Hopefully, with careful management, Cox will be able to replace slow ISDN lines with cable modems." -- Greg McKenna "As a current user of a cable modem through Cox Communications, I've experienced the amazing speed of this system, compared to a regular modem. Downloading was agony before the cable modem; I had time to read the entire newspaper while downloading large files. With a cable modem, I don't even have time to read Dear Abby!" -- Tracy Werth "This [cable modem] encourages me to get on [the Internet] because it's so fast. It's going to be a very hot item...The speed is the difference, no question in my mind - you can't get these speeds over telephone lines. The speed is awesome." -- Bruce Brockhagen "I can't tell you how pleased I am to have Cox@Home. It is so nice not to wait for a site to pop up on my screen. I've been so motor-mouthed about your service since it was installed, that I should receive a commission from all the new customers your getting [or going to get] from my rants/raves about your service." -- Edward Bollheime |
