Either that, or a SAC base.

And risk missing a good rumor on APC?! I hope you're kidding. I had a toilet installed in the den just to be sure.

In fact... never mind.

Maybe. Bring it. Let them severely overpay for AS, suddenly watch all that free feed revenue get DUMPED and force us and AA/US to compete which will force them to abandon marketshare. We won't code with them, we will 100% HAVE to overlap some of that and they will absolutely have to draw down capacity. They aren't immortal anymore. I really hope they buy them, but I doubt they will. Oh and I don't see SWAPA bending over for Horizon either.

It "was" a joke. Good point though.
