Time Warner would be nice, but I'm not holding my breath...

OT--

Speaking of which, I'm dying to get some sort of fast, always-on internet connection for my apartment in Northern NJ (trying to avoid installing a second phone line). I tried @Home for a Cable Modem line (which are great, I'm told), but they're not in the area yet. Any ideas from anyone???

I find this very, very interesting:

usatoday.com

The talks apparently included AT&T absorbing the Microsoft Network Internet service provider (ISP) into AT&T WorldNet. AT&T could also take stakes in or ownership of Microsoft media Web sites, such as the MSN portal and Web-based Slate magazine. In exchange, Microsoft would not only want money from AT&T but also a deal to have AT&T adopt and promote Microsoft Windows NT software

...Whatever happend to being a loss leader? I did hear that MS was looking to cut costs in it's internet initatives...could TransPoint be next?
