[Wylug-discuss] Good news or bad?

[Anne Wilson]

We've been with Mailbox ever since we went broadband, 3 years ago, and been 
very happy with them.  In particular, they are sympathetic to linux users, 
and talk to you like an intelligent human being.  Also, when you set up an 
account with them you get the choice of windows or linux servers for your 
webspace.

Today I got a message that starts like this:

On the home page of our website http://www.mailbox.net.uk/ there is a press
release confirming the acquisition of Mailbox Internet by Leeds based 186k
Ltd, formerly the telecoms subsidiary of the Lattice Group.

Should I be pleased, or worried?  I see that 186k were at one time owned by 
Transco, but not now, if I read that aright.  Does anyone know of them?
