Now they are calculating % sub growth compared to the same quarter last year.. That's minor. Major is the fact that they subtracted the cablevision subscribers before they did the comparison. Excite@Home's worldwide residential broadband subscriber base grew to 3,200,000, up 126% from 1,416,000 at March 31, 2000. Net subscriber additions in the quarter totaled 449,000, an increase of 40% from the 321,000 added in the first quarter of 2000. Excite@Home's subscriber totals exclude all subscribers of Cablevision Systems Corp., with whom the company has decided to terminate its relationship. Historical numbers also exclude Cablevision for comparison purposes. Dispite all the trashing of ATHM it has great potential. It just needs leadership. 1) You can't deny that there is tremendous demand for broadband by the public and by business. 2) You can't deny that cable beats DSL hands down. Everybody at ATHM is simply punching a clock and hoping to get one more paycheck in before real management comes along and starts kicking ass. We have no idea how good or bad the new CEO is. Her last company does not show anybody anything. Before that just one of many at Sprint. Watch the news for a decisive move. We will know one way or the other in a month. No news is not good news for a CEO.
