3Com dishes up fast food, faster Web Teams with Burger King franchisee to hype products CBS MarketWatch - Last Update: 3:47 PM ET Feb 24, 1999 NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- 3Com, after striking out with a dwindling field of customers once seen as a surefire market for its wares, has finally found an adaptation of the much-heralded "cybercafe." While many of the once-promising rash of coffeehouses with Web access have gone bust in the past few years, a Burger King franchise owner on Wall Street has been hitting pay dirt. Buy a burger-fries-drink combo from Peter Allen Abramson and get a slip of paper with a number on it. Enter it into one of 20 personal computers mounted against a dining-room wall and get 20 minutes of free Web access. It's drawing more business, partly because consumer interest in the Internet is higher nowadays. Plus, unlike at the cybercafes of yesteryear, Web access at Abramson's Burger King is free. cbs.marketwatch.com o~~~ O
