Dean, As a Comcast customer I disagree with your review of the company. Also a few factual inaccuracies, Comcast has digital phone service, I have 4 lines in my house from Comcast (also at a fraction of Qwest's prices). I have always had good service from Comcast.

I know people who have Comcast's High Speed Internet Access in the east metro and it is not as fast nor is the service as good as we recieve from Time Warner. Also currently Comcast does not offer digital phone service, which we have found is quite excellent for half the cost of your typical Quest service. Also the cable TV offerings are similar but Time Warner offers greater services and stations. I know the City currently has issues with the Time Warner franchise, but this is one family that has been completely satisfied with Time Warner. I would hope the City works with Comcast to ensure equal if not greater service to the City of Minneapolis once they take over the franchise. Also I would recommend that the City to strongly encourage Comcast to offer digital phone service as this is a relatively inexpensive phone service that truly is the wave of the future. Dean E.
