I don't take bribes. The solution is not AOL offering a few of us service for free in exchange for our silence -- the solution is preserving equal access to the free and open Internet for everyone.

I think a lot of people are understanding [the move] as the internet as we know it is going to disappear and AOL is the beginning of a slide into that happening.

By suddenly offering a two-tier system, AOL guarantees that over time those using the free delivery system will suffer from a degradation of service.

Have you ever seen a company that offers two services, one free and the other paid, provide as good a service to the free one? It is guaranteed that the quality of service for those who do not pay will go down.

Since we chose HSI as our point-of-sale solution over six years ago, the HSI level of service and responsiveness has been excellent. The HSI software was able to manage the transaction volume a property of our size generates into a single database solution, which has proved to be both reliable and efficient.

We wanted a better solution to provide more elevator service while work is in progress.
