Mogo, I can not confirm that specific rumor.Based on the number of rumors circulating I speculate we will see a number of mergers and acquisitions which will vault MSPG clearly in to the number 2 position.

Yes, I can say this because I saw the man play basketball. Lets see if my read is accurate.

mogo, for the past few weeks there's been a buzz around MSPG relating to what the company calls "possible business combinations". Many people have chosen to read this as "MSPG is up for sale". Another possibility is a merger with another company. In any case, there is no shortage of rumors as to what might happen.

My take on the ONEM rumor is this -- MSPG has acquired several large customer bases in the past (PSINet, SpryNet, and Netcom) without much preceding fanfare. I feel certain that the recent excitement surrounding MSPG has to do with something more momentous than the acquisition of a 450k subscriber ISP.

Peace
Mr Bones
