Another data point for you, Jim: I've had @home cable modem service
from Rogers Cable in Canada for the past month and a half. The
service has gone down on average 1.5 times per week for an average of 10
minutes at a time. Today, it was down for about 1/2 hour during
trading hours. I had one short position in MO open at the
time, fortunately, it kept going down until the service came back
up. When I called @HOME tech support, they had a canned message
saying they know they have problems with the server for my area but don't
know when it will be fixed. <br>
<br>
When the service is up, it is great, but reliability needs a bit more
work. If I had a choice between DSL and Cable modem in my area, I
think I would go for DSL.<br>

I think today gave me a good clue to the question of is the correction over or are we starting on a bear market. Both the NASD and the NDX made a strong bounce off the bottom of their Intermediate Term Up Trend Channels. Also while all the other indices I watch remain in Short Term Down Trend Channels they all also made strong up moves. It would be premature to say that we had a market correction and it s over before the other indices break out of their down trends, but I m going to nibble based on today s strong hint. Since the NASD and OEX are the ones in up trends, I limited my candidates to the Internet and high tech stocks. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><br>
<br>
I finally narrowed my choice down to At Home Corp (ATHM). The story here is that I just switched to a cable modem from ATHM and Jones Cable TV and I m greatly impressed with their service. I download at 100 times the speed of my old 56k modem and upload at twice the speed. That got me curious and when I looked into ATHM in more detail, I found that they are adding customers at an astonishing rate. Based on my own excitement and pleasure with the fast Internet access, I really think this can be a big winner. I haven t got time to go into the chart tonight, but I have posted it.
