Vint Cerf: MCI dreht ATT auf null-.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- MCI & Worldcom (= UUnet) grosse Teile des Internet - Geschäfts abgegeben werden, da ist die Upstart-Firma schon wieder im Geschäft zurück. Ab dato befährt Compuserve das Backbone von UUnet, die weiteren Pläne des MCI- Vizepräsidenten & Netz/veteranen Vint Cerf beinhalten unterem, den Marktanteil des mächtigen Konkurrenten At&T auf Null zu drehen. -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- Nancy Weil Posted at 9:05 AM PT, Feb 4, 1999 .... "We're back," said Vint Cerf, MCI WorldCom's senior vice president of Internet architecture and technology, during a press conference Thursday. MCI WorldCom Internet is available now for $16.95 for customers who use the company for long-distance service and for $19.95 for other users. The service, aimed at consumers and small businesses, involves an alliance with CompuServe, an affiliate of America Online, which will offer portal, Web hosting, and instant messaging services. ... Cerf offered to jump in to clarify matters, "even though I know beans about marketing," he said. Such deals between competitors are likely to occur more in the future of what Cerf termed "a very peculiar business" of the Internet. Different companies can offer different advantages to each other, and that can push them past viewing each other only as competitors, he indicated. .... The Internet service will use the backbone network of UUNet, a unit of MCI WorldCom. It will be better than the previous Internet service offered by MCI -- which had to sell that part of its business before regulators approved its merger with WorldCom in July 1998 -- because the company has 600 points of presence, twice what MCI had before. ... Asked if the new service is intended to be yet another means for MCI WorldCom to compete with AT&T, Donoghue said, "We have always intended to drive their market share down to zero." Added Cerf: "Competition? What competition?"
