Trey, How much regulation does Bellsouth Yellow Pages, Bellsouth.net have from the FCC? The 14 years Trey was from MSFT IPO. Any time in the late 80's MSFT would have qualified for any antitrust hearing. I think MSFT told IBM to get lost on the OS2 stuff around 86,87 The reason ADSL is not here now and the reason it's not going for a long time is because the RBOCs figure out they can't make money selling DSL lines. At $30 Month. For Example, Bellsouth announced a deal with 3com but after the announcement Bellsouth publicly said they can only qualify 20% of their lines to run DSL. Now if they really wanted the DSL business they could qualify 7 of 10 by cutting out load coils and bridge taps. Now if they understood the the digital access business they would capture every account possible. BUT ALL THEY SEE IS $30 month. <<Do you really think the cable industry will be an overnight success?>> Hell YES..
