Around here it's Comcast vs AT&T Yahoo. I wonder what Comcast thinks of the deal.

Lol-
02 Comcast aquires AT&T Broadband
ISP-Planet - News - Comcast, AT&T Close Broadband Merger
So the gist is that Comcast sticks to cable and at&t to DSL, ameritech/sbc (and for that DSL -which was formerally mainly was SBC- Yahoo is the content while AT&T provides the network).
Recently, Comcast was tired of paying for oursourced mail, so they switched to Zimbra

Meanwhile AT&T tries to get back into Fios & TV services.
& Yahoo acquires zimbra.

Garlinghouse said it was just the latest acquisition his company has made to become the preferred Internet media partner for other industries, building on deals with eBay Inc, Comcast, and a newspaper consortium. Recent Yahoo acquisitions include advertising companies Right Media and BlueLithium. http://.reuters.com/article/mergersNews/idUSN1736752020070917 |
It's just one big loop-everyone's 'separate' but they depend on each other in so many ways. Welcome to the internet.
Just stay tuned-i'm sure answers will come in a bit.

Will Zimbra customers be affected by the acquisition?
No. Yahoo! and Zimbra remain committed to the existing product, on-premise software, ISP partners and markets. Together with its partners, Zimbra will continue to serve service providers, educational institutions, government, non-profits and businesses.
