- You should close that dumb tripod ad.
- This page looks like crap in Netscape and that's too bad.
- This page has changed.  The story, all e-mails and articles relating to the story are in the
story section.  If you are having different problems, want to report a bug or anything else with the @home service, please e-mail me and I will attach it to the main page here.  Just because the story is over doesn't mean we can't use this spot as a resource for other @home problems, should they arise.

 

Updates
10/16/1999 It's been a little bit since I've had an update.  I've been recieving a bunch of e-mail's lately and don't have time to respond to each of them so I have decided to put up a letters section for you to get you voice heard.  I'm also fixing some links that take you to the wrong place on this page.  Download POW! from Analog-x it nukes those pesky little pop up adds.
08/24/1999 The last (?) chapter of the story has been entered into the story section.  I'm going to compile all the e-mails and articles I have into a big word document and that will be availible for download soon. Also check the acknowledgements section for a run down of people who were helpful (or not).  I changed the name of the page, why?   It's no longer a cable modem @hell story.  I'm not sure what I'll do with this page now.  Any ideas, pass them my way.   Look for a story about @home in this weeks Isthmus.  It hits the stands 08/26/1999.
08/23/1999 More rumours added.  Older updates have been moved to a different page.   The story has been moved to another page.  I'm guessing that this saga is coming to an end, so I'm adjusting the page for that reason.  I'm not sure what to do with this page after everything is up and running.
08/20/1999 Holy crap!  Over 300 hits yesterday with a total of 1581 in 10 days?!  That's an average of 150 a day!   Tell your friends!  Can we hit over 500 in a day?  (Without hitting refresh 100 times).  Grab yourself an issue of the Capitol Times today and read about Bresnan, my page and or quest in the tech section.
08/19/1999 Channel 27 did a terrible story on the Bresnan speed issue.  I will have video of that on this page sometime soon.  Look in the media section.
08/18/1999 More and more true stories are coming watch out for them.   Right now(10:08am) I'm editing some huge e-mails I got about @home.  So come back and check that out later today.  In the mean time, todays chapter has been added. WATCH CHANNEL 27 TONIGHT AT 10PM.  This page and our plight will be broadcast.
