We tried Tmobile internet for a couple of months 3 yrs ago. For $50 it was a good deal with the claimed speeds they offer. However, I did a little more research and found that if I lived across the street Tmobile internet was not available, meaning we were on the edge of coverage. There were many times that it would be super fast, but other times when it dropped to a crawl where you couldn’t load a webpage. We finally gave up on it. Cox had a deal for $49.99 a month for 300gbps for two years, includes the modem, optional router. We signed up for that and haven’t looked back. We also have our own Netgear mesh network which spreads the WiFi around.
On the flip side we love tmobile cell coverage in our area which we get from Ryan Reynolds Mint Mobile. Such a deal for $15 a month! Nobody can beat that price!
Obviously your location and coverage will vary. :)
Actually only $597.77 which is a little over $199 each for 3, free delivery to a scheduled room, setup, taxes, extra. I think it works out to a $110 discount for 2 and a $200 discount for 3 in the cart.
Regarding Microsoft Outlook…..In my former life as a software engineer, I supported Eudora Pro email, ever heard of it? Lol. Named after Eudora Welty. Eudora was the premiere email program supporting multiple accounts back in the 90’s, remember that decade, lol. Several universities around the country used Eudora. Outlook just didn’t have all the bells and whistles Eudora had back then.
Currently Apple Mail supports multiple accounts fairly well, but it doesn’t have all the features Eudora Pro had.
I remember Eudora! But currently Outlook is one of the very few mail clients that works the way I need it to -- specifically, it doesn't mark an email as read unless I reply to it. (I use my inbox as a to-do list.)
Yay Eudora! We had customers calling to ask for what I thought were strange features. One that cracked me up was how can I retract an email I just sent. I think it’s a thing now, LOL. Everyone uses email differently as you just pointed out. :)
Hey - I used Eudora for quite some time! These days, though, spending most of my time on various Macs (4 of ‘em) and a couple iOS devices, plus some of my time on Windows (2 machines), I just stick to browser based email.
I've adapted (grudgingly) to browser-based Gmail for my work address, but it's kind of a hassle to manage multiple accounts this way. Can't believe after all these years Google *still* hasn't come up with a way to do it in a single tab.
That’s cool! I prefer not to use web browser email as I don’t want my contacts and personal info left out there on the web. Plus having multiple accounts is difficult to deal with on web mail. That’s a big reason I used Eudora back in the day, to have everything stored locally, using the POP3 protocol versus IMAP. I used to be a Windows guy, but moved to Mac and iOS as I got tired of the blue screen of death and virus issues.
LOL! I get that. The benefit of IMAP is big in that you can access it from multiple devices. I just don’t want my contacts out on webmail servers. The hackers love to hack into the web based servers. 2 factor is nice those and everyone should use it.
Hey Michael -- any chance you used to use “The Semware Editor”? My all-time fav programmable text editor. Seems like something a Eudora user might have also used.
Interesting hearing your thoughts on home internet from cell providers. Verizon keeps pitching their $25/month service for existing cell customers in my area. I’d love to leave Comcast Xfinity but worry about relying on Verizon to drive my work from home tech company internet requirements. I can’t have it dropping video calls. So you trust T-Mobile for that?
Again, YMMV, but I've had no issues with T-Mo for video calls and other work stuff. As it happens, I'm currently testing Verizon home internet because I can get it super-cheap through work. Speeds are even better than T-Mo, but I've noticed occasional brief service interruptions. To be continued...

That is a crazy good deal on the Hisense 55" TV. But I can't justify it as I already have as many TVs as I can use.
