[Dave Farber <dave () farber net>]

very very wrong to switch their phone service to a non AT&T provider and so
state why.

These are also the same people who gave us VNC (Virtual Network Computing):

<http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/>

"What is VNC? - A practical introduction

VNC stands for Virtual Network Computing. It is, in essence, a remote
display system which allows you to view a computing 'desktop' environment
not only on the machine where it is running, but from anywhere on the
Internet and from a wide variety of machine architectures."

And all available under the GPL, of course.
