this right here is exactly my point..you get your dsl + a phone line for about the same damn price you only get hi speed cable line...It is called sacrificing profit off one thing but gaining it back on another..just like the games industry...
pure profit huh..really..whats about payroll, what about repair work, what about maintanance, what about taxes the companies pay, what about..you know what i can go on for days...try rethinking business expenses before you open your flap...
yeah you are just about right..one thing people dont look at...how many times have you seen hi speed cable prices in the 40-50$ amounts and seen dsl much cheaper..the way the subsidize no profit on one part of teh service is to add on a service..its like what game systems do..the charge you a cheap price on the console and jack you up on the game..thats where thier profitability comes from
and you are not entitled to DSL with a company..go with thier competitor..no one is stopping..run free...it is your responsibility to read teh contract, know your terms, then agree to those terms..if those terms are not to your liking...then dont sign up...
ok not all companies who offer landlines offer wirless, and vice versa...#! SBC owns only 60% of cingular..every dollar that they lose off thier base land line business is thiers and thiers alone. Even with people switching over to cell phones it doesnt make up for he whole cost..with so many people having night and weekend free, cheap as hell minute plans and some even having free national long distance plans, any major company is gonna lose some dough there as compared to land lines..#2 The major companies didnt pay for most of the infrastructure(back in the at&t days when they were subsidized by the government)...#3 you will not see fiber to the home unless a) the homeowner pays for it themselves, b) it is a brand new home..what you will get is fiber to the premises, which means the rest of your house will be the same, but from the switching box back to the main station will be fiber..
The only way that they are being allowed to remerge back together is if it is shown that there is enough other competition available. I work as a rep for SBC, and let me tell you, due to cell phones and voip, we are losing landlines like the Titanic was losing passengers. They have already laid off a lot of people becuase of this and once we merge with AT&t we will be losing several thousand more...
As a rep for SBC, that is not thier policy..that was very nice customer service..if you sign up for a year contract, and you break it by moving..we can charge you up to the disconnect fee...just be lucky you got out of it free last time
Yes and you maybe be a "I am a REAL American from Canada , not a wanna-be from the country , self called "last remaining superpower" "of America"
but you still cant spell worth a damn...oh and if its that cold you have to pull out your rfid card anyway...so is there any real difference..it really is the same motion, and whos to say the SWIPING (notice only 1 p there)will work every time without fail. While i do think that getting away from the Mag strip reading strips is good(they wear out and sometimes cannot be read unless you put a plastic bag over em)i dont think that rfid is the way to go..

yes yes yes it was faceoff and it was john travolta and nicholas cage...but also remember we seem phaser weapons and we dont really have them yet...
that was trasding places i believe and no they did not do this, what they did was take a rich guy and turn him poor and desperate, and a poor and desperate black guy and turn him into a rich guy...
you use ships to cross the ocean, and the hovercrafts to unload the cargo..other then that it is still the time concept you are talking about..the army has somethign called a "24 hour response time around the world" where most of the major starting units, including tanks and rockets tanks(MLRS) are on the ground in 24 hours...you cannot do that with blimps...only way really is still plane..shoudl i continue
But the time expenditure is huge..why not just use ships/hovecraft instead for doing almost the same thing. They are almost as slow, can carry a lot better weapons and have some manuvering capabilities..yeah blimps can manuever..just not that well..
dont forget all the zip ties! they are always imporatnt..and a good trash can withing reach(not 1 large one per shop...get one below or beside each bench, and on hanging on the wall a damp cloth(how many times have you gotten something in your eyes, mouth and your fingers are coated with 3" of dust from the customers case..) and last but not least walkie talkies..that way you rguy in teh front can talk with your guys in tha back without having to leave the customer...leaving customers alone is bad..unless it something that needs to be said privately, get an intercom or walkietalkie systems...als oyou gotta get your techs some tunes...build in radios or allow employees uses of ipods or something. most of the times they aremuch happier
!
Why not just bring back the "Skirosy" Helicopters, they have a decent speed, they can carry a long list of cargo(vehicles, munitions, bombs, troops), and they can carry some decent weaponary and armor for themselves..personally i would rather see a new fleet of these then airships..anyone who wants to see em they are here----->http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/s ystems/aircraft/h-53.htm
The guy who owns the website just keeps repeating himself, doesnt have all the facts in each case(like SBC's patent was not for the concept of a weblink..read the lawsuit sometime), like part of those companies dont outsource anymore, that and how many of those class action lawsuits were dismissed..i would say at least 15%. Oh and instead of listening just to Lou Dobbs, he should try pulling his head out of the sand
Ok mr anonymous bastard i did not say every post about google was newsworthy..Hell i for one hate articles based on blogs unless it comes from someone who knows what the hell they are talking about
(Gates blog on microsoft..not even sure then) While i have to admit there has been a lot about google, what have you done to submit stories?...i have submitted at least 2-3 stories, including one for a Stra Trek Communicator cellphone(how much more geekiness you need)which have been denied..Until you even attempt to #1 register(dont you love idiots who obviously are trying to insult you but dont even have the ballz to register)#2 submit your own stories...then shut the fuck up pansy boy!
if you dont like google..dont use it..dont come here if you dont wanna hear about google news..google has been very innovative lately and it deals with technology and computing...hence why it is here on slashdot...just because there are alot of newswirthy articles about them doesnt mean you get to complain...And editor..why not work on a new filter where if someone doesnt wanna know about google, you can filter it out...
but they will charge you exhorbitant fees for it~ then when you try to pay those fees , paypall will freeze your account and you wont be able to call either ebay or paypal to complain becuase they will have shut your phone off!
what this has the the ipod and ipod mini dont..a drive that will last a lot longer and from what i understand, should make the battery last a bit longer...I agree with above though and still say they should have them with AM/FM..I am picking one up as soon as they get to the apple store down here...my only other problem is do i buy one for my wife or give her my U2 ipod
Well for one, if someone uses this cartridge and gives it to a another company, how is that company obligated to "fufill the contract", when the never had the chance to read the packaging which has this "contract". Does teh cartridge itself say 1 time use only or just the packaging..if it is just the packaging then they have no legal basis it seems.IANAL...but in my mind You cannot be held liable for a contract if you have not seen or heard of the contract. How are the refilling companies supposed to differentiate only cartridge from another..

what i am saying is that is possible and it did happen during world war 2. By the parent calling this impossible he was wrong
except in california where there is no such crime as breaking and entering anymore...
