Craig:
I always hate those percentage figure guys. Why cannot he be straightforward in terms of absolute numbers or how much of them are AOL members?
It looks to me AtHome without AOL was a DeadHome till they
got Excited by Mr. Bell. Let us see how this healthy competition
evolves.
I want to hear a day within 1999
somebody announcing there are 1 million AOL DSL customers.

Based on a research report I read (proprietary) the main problem is
not with the last mile. Most of the time the servers are the culprits
(cannot serve large number of simultaneous connections).
