CJ, And so AV is making a splash with Free Access (I built a comp for a friend and loaded it with Netscape and Free Access--- what a deal!) and the question quickly becomes, "How come if it's so good, and so obvious, CPQ didn't keep AV and do this itself?" Or, why do they keep making moves that albeit narrow their focus but give up future synergistic revenue streams?

Request for feed back!! As a CPQ LEAPS trader I have read a lot of the posts over the past years and shared a lot of the up and down feelings???.. you all express on this thread. As I have just seen some post on ISP?s I would like to get some feedback from this thread participants on a possible ISP venture I am considering. I own one of the easiest to remember and most generic domain names one can get. [4U.com] The name can be remembered after you seen it for 3-4 seconds on your TV screen. When you drive by a bill board in your car at 70 miles/hr. After you close that paper or magazine you just read. In the generic form it can be used with brand names, products, companies, communities etc. For example; PIG.4u.com, Computers.4u.com, Internet.4u.com, COMPIG.4u.com, PIGCITY.4u.com For example easy to remember e mail addresses ; Elwood@4u.com, Jimbo@4u.com please be assured that these names have been randomly selected and are for demonstration purposes only!! Anyway I am indulged by people and companies that want me to sell the domain. I have been considering this but my opinion is changing and I am looking for some valued input from outsiders, so if you please would be so kind let me have some feed back. I realize this thread is for CPQ stuff but as it is Sunday morning? Or e-mail me at seaheko@4u.com Thanks Herman Koster
