Ma Bell returns?
Interesting business news that AT&T is going to buy Bellsouth, forming a communications giant that will cover the entire southern 1/2 of the nation plus much of the midwest. Still not the orig. Bell System, but darn close to it considering who the companies are that have merged/aquired to become the newest AT&T; much of the orig. Bell System.
So now customers should be able to one-stop shop for all of their communication needs - local and long distance, internet and broadband, wireless, and pay TV on it's way. Hmmm...seems some 20 odd years ago that there was a company trying to do the same thing, we should catch back up to '84 in a year or so..
