RUMOR:  I was at the new CostCo in ChrisTown just after they opened (early
December) and had an interesting conversation with the guy who was managing
their computer stock.  He said that CostCo had recently signed a contract with
some (unnamed) company to be the exclusive distributor of a NEW service that's
launching in the March-April time-frame.  This is supposedly a satellite-based
service that uses one of the little 19" dish antennae and will provide a
hundred or more cable TV channels, phone, and high-speed internet access, all
for a price he said would be comparable to what you'd pay Cox Cable for about
the same service.
