    doesn't pick up any TV channels. Where people still run Windows ME
    and Vista, and don't know what a web browser is because they only
    check email and play solitaire.  Where there is no shame in having
    an aol.com <http://aol.com> email address (and checking it once a
    month).  Where I have a customer who uses her Internet solely to
    stream a Christian TV channel and if it is off the air thinks her
    Internet is down and if we ask her to check and see if she can
    bring up the Google website, has no idea what we are talking
    about.  Google? Website?

        The other half think they already have Google for their
        Internet provider,
        because that’s what the screen says after they click on Internet.

        You need to be Google for that.

            85% is certainly realistic from my experience.

            I personally know one of their original engineers for
            Kansas City. I
            have heard they have many areas with 85%+ take rate, and
            that the
            original free/low-cost tier is a very small percentage in
            these areas.

                That number they report is meaningless.



                I bet their take in Provo is very high.



                Also, it just doesn’t take a lot of employees to run
                fiber once it’s
                installed correctly.

                The layoff may not actually be indicative of anything
                other than the job
                is
                done and now they maintain.



                I call BS on this article.
