Couldn't help noting that UUnet will run modems and routers for AOL+Compuserve and it continues to do so for their biggest competitor MSN (at least the last time I checked). Antitrust?
I can't help but respond to this ridiculous suggestion. Please look up the definition of Antitrust before you go rumor-mongering without facts.
The principle of antitrust is controlling a large enough segment of the market to minimize competition. Approaching a monopoly.
AOL+Compuserve will continue to use multiple vendors for their customers' access. Microsoft is free to choose anyone they want.
I'm free to choose any operating system for my desktop computer that I want, also. (Anyone who doesn't get it; look it up when you get home.) Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
