Yeah, that's true. You may actually end up paying less because if you had a Mac you would have a lesser chance of spending hundreds of dollars getting your computer repaired.

Gosh, I would NEVER spend that much, even on my PC.  :shocked:

Cool! I can go to the office and look at the unit!

What else do Comcast office have?

Actually, no, you couldn't. They don't generally allow the public into the back.

Each office pretty much has everything it takes to run a cable company-clerks to take payments, call centers to field calls, the headend which actually is the heart of the operation, etc.

Yeah a quick glance at the stats shows that things have really rebounded since December, which was our worst month ever.

Yes, but they are manufactured by HP these days, not Compaq.

Correct. HP acquired Compaq around 2002 or so.
