( Snipped rest ) Er, I have noticed a complete collapse of the NASDAQ and a drop in the Dow Jones and Standard & Poors indices lately. AT&T has quite a few problems other than @Home so that is not the only thing affecting it. I also have read some belief that @Home is a good buy at current levels, although that is the sort of thing that was said by a lot of stock analysts for stocks that have already not only lost value, but some of which have gone bankrupt. From what I have read I believe the problem with the @Home stock is more likely to be from the cost of adding very large numbers of customers rather than anything resulting from action by their customers because of bad service. If there is a cost problem it is more likely to be a result of their attempts to provide new service and costs in fixing the problem than because people are disenchanted with them. Mike Walsh
