???? Where are *you* located? AFAIK, in Northern Virginia at least,
Comcast uses @Home exclusively and has still been signing folks up
continually, even after the whole bankruptcy thing started. In fact,
Comcast told me flat out (in answer to an inquiry as to the extent of
service loss if @Home disappeared) that @Home runs 100% of everything. All
the DNS servers, mail servers, web servers, firewalls, routers, etc. -- in
other words EVERYTHING. The only thing Comcast provides is the cable
medium.
