Even worse than that. tw Telecom (small "tw"), Time Warner Cable, and Time Warner Inc. (CNN-Turner, Time magazine, etc.) are *three* different companies, now that TWC has been spun off. I wonder if they'll be required to change their name at some point, as tw Telecom was. Of course since tw Telecom got the "tw", the cable folks will have to go farther afield. (I rather like their old "Sterling Cable" brand, but they probably don't.) The "ITT" name is shared by various former subsidiaries of a now-split conglomerate. (I think the residuary is Starwood Hotels, not one of the "ITT"-branded companies.) "AT&T Wireless" was spun out of AT&T Corp. at one point, though with a bit of irony both were later acquired by Southwestern Bell, which took the ATT brand for itself. I refer to them (now "AT&T Inc.") as "faux AT&T". This could make deciphering deals with "AT&T" very confusing. >----- >Mike Hammett >Intelligent Computing Solutions >http://www.ics-il.com > > > >On 8/4/2010 1:23 AM, John Thomas wrote: > > Yes, I have heard of them.
