Winner = Someone; please, help answer this question???

@home will win . @home will become a kind of portal soon. it's high speed access will draw a very different kind of web browsing crowd compared to POTS ISPs.
not only that but they( cable modem ISPs) will nibble into AOL's 12,000,000 subscriber base if they don't answer with their own high speed network.

i will give up my AOL account despite a fond feeling for what AOL has done to develop the online community. reason? speed. speed kills.
i hope that AOL can address this situation.
