Man. I titally understand why MSN would want a piece of AOL, but how awful would that combination be? On a related note, why do people need something like AOL? Is the intarwebbie thing so complicated you have to ahve thing sneatly packaged?

Whoa CT... you gotta lay off those liquid breakfasts. :beer:

I can't understand why anyone would want to deal with either MSN or AOL. most local broadband ISPs give you everything you need and some stuff you don't.

I've been wondering the same thing for years. What really gets me is the people that have broadband (DSL or Cable) and still pay for AOL on top of it...

The intraweb is a scary place. Letting go is the hardest part.
