Quantum Fiber?  Sounds like a misbranding. I highly doubt they are using Quantum technology. 

That’s how Lowe’s got in a lawsuit for selling 8” boards that were 7.6” long and similar.

Curious. Any thoughts on how this changes their business approach, if any? Obviously something like this has to be 
planned far in advance, but I can’t help but wonder what impact the recent outage and bad press might have had on 
their plans here, possibly accelerating them? Probably not. But it’s an interesting move regardless.
