Hi Seb,
I (quite respectfully) disagree - and I figure we'll probably continue
to disagree about this, so there's no need for me to get preachy or
anything -- just a short note to explain 'another viewpoint':
About a year or two ago I found the forms and -really- wanted to help
push through the paperwork to see if we could wrangle $$ out of Compaq.
Unfortunately, we weren't an NFO at the time ... so it probably wasn't
going to happen.
My feelings at the time were (a) for a very large company our total
bandwidth costs are chump-change, (b) with less to worry about on the
funding side ... I figgered we could blaze new trails on the 'service'
side and have more _fun_.
I thought it a small price for a "Powered by Enron/MCI/Unilever/Frederick's
of Hollywood" logo.
