TCI shut things down all year long. problem with TCI was they were so damned undecided on what they wanted. TCI's stock never waivered. AT&T on the other hand didn't fully understand what they were getting into taking over TCI.
>Didn't TCI do the same thing for years? Seems at the end of the year(October,November)TCI would almost always shut things down till February or March....

>>SIMPLE...They over-extended themselves. January last year AT&T was worth 175 BILLION Dollars. January THIS year AT&T is worth 75 BILLION Dollars. Watch as the saga continues...

>>>Take a good look at the AT&T logo {the blue globe}, now go watch Star Wars & see if it resembles the DeathStar.

>>>For 14 years I {the last 5 I was an Upgrade Manager} who worked for Continental Cablevision which became MediaOne which was absorbed by AT&T, so I am giving you a viewpoint unique to having been on the inside. So after MediaOne was swallowed by AT&T I bailed. AT&T has a history of profit uber alles, and while I am of German descent I could not in good conscience stay there. When the deal was first announced back in 1999 I was convinced AT&T was buying MediaOne for the brain power. This past summer the VP of the Northeast resigned & I took that as my cue to follow suit.

>>>>Your lucky if you just now got shut down...AT&T has been doing this all over the country since October, 2000. There learning there is a differance between running a long distance phone company than running a cable tv company.
