i like the part in bold letters.........JMHO @Home considers Road Runner pairing By Corey Grice and Ben Heskett Staff Writers, CNET News.com February 4, 1999, 11:30 a.m. PT REDWOOD CITY, California--A senior executive with high-speed cable Internet access provider @Home said the door may be open for a possible deal with Road Runner, another entrant in the market. Executives from @Home said in an interview with CNET News.com that it would make more sense for the duo to cooperate and tackle the booming market for high-speed Net access together, rather than remain independent companies. A pairing--either through a cooperative marketing effort or a traditional merger--might make even more sense given both firms' ties to communications giant AT&T. Senior @Home executives appear amenable to a deal. "I can't imagine it not happening," said Charles Moldow, vice president of sales and marketing for @Media, the company's content unit. Speculation has swirled around a possible deal since AT&T earlier this week agreed to form a joint venture with Time Warner, parent of Road Runner.
