Absolutely hilarious ... except when you realize that all of the
information presented there is probably historically accurate.

There's only one minor, nit picky item that's incorrect but poetic
license forgives it. The deathstar logo didn't appear till 1/1/84, the
date of the breakup. Up till then, AT&T and it's affiliated companies
used the stylized Bell logo which remained available to the "baby Bells"
but not to AT&T. So, at the end of the video, where they show how AT&T
went to at&t, they should have used the Bell logo. But, like I said, the
graphic is funnier with the old and new deathstar and I'm REALLY picking
nits in what is a truly a brilliant piece of comedy that is dead on
accurate.

It's all true, no exageration. As a matter of fact he left out SBC
buying PacBell.
