Cox owns a percentage of @home. Sorry, I forget the exact percentage, but it's a significant stake. IMO, Cox is a MUCH better investment. Check out the balance sheets!! I use a lot of Cox services, including their Cable TV, Phone, Internet Access. Their service vans are all over the place. Customer service is excellent. IMO, @home service is very subpar. I liken it to AOL, but AOL is much eaisier to navigate and has superior benefits. I don't even use the @home service on the screen, BUT love the Cable access Cox provides-Fast, Fast, Fast!!
@Home really has a way to go to improve it's appeal.
But hey, wished I had owned it when it made its jump last month. I thought it was highly overvalued in the 30's, then it jumped to the 50s! Still think its overvalued and COX is undervalued. 1999 estimates for Cox are $79 |
