> DSL is more reliable. If you're the first in your neighborhood to get @Home, you'll enjoy it. Once you're just 1 out of 5,000, you may as well be using a 300 baud modem. I've got DSL from pacbell here in palo alto, 6 mbit down/ 384kbit up. I've had @Home, and while it _can_ be faster, 99% of the time it isnt.

Tk, good link. It appears that customer service or the lack of it is Athm's big problem, plus the lack of performance. Now, Athm's stock price has gone from 23 1/2 to 198 and currently sells for 160 9/16. Yes, I noticed that it too loses $money. I'll check out what the elephants analyst's have to say, but I'm sure it's another screaming "buy", so why should I bother? For a while, it's don't fight the trend. I won't. Trust me. Ps This should not concern the Amzn bulls. The Bezos pr machine tells us that he's all about customer service, and we all know he can deliver us a no-profit commodity, if we pay just pay for the shipping.
