Covad Alive?

from the really? dept

Covad should thank their lucky stars I never had broadband access through them. As I said in that original article, they did the smart thing and tried to play dead when I was looking around. I passed them over and now it looks like they’re coming out of bankruptcy. They even say they’ve learned their lesson, they’re very sorry, and they promise that it will never ever happen again. By the way, after the Salon article was published last week, a few different folks from Covad contacted me, some of whom tried to convince me that they would be okay (as this article suggests) and that I should give them a try. No one wanted to tell me what their “contingency” plans were, though, if they ran into trouble again…
