It's entirely possible that most of the changes will be to the @home
customers serviced by AT&T (see today's www.userfriendly.org strip -- and
serviced may be the type people growing up on farms know :-).

The things I've read recently lead me to believe that AT&T has been
attempting to buy the @home assets at a very low price, but then if nobody
else is in the bidding that's OK by me.
