Having had several family members who used to work for parts of the "old" AT&T - and I mean pre-breakup AT&T, I can promise you that AT&T is nothing like the "current" ATT - which, I believe, is working to remove that "ampersand" from their brand icon.

The "current" ATT is barely more than a holding company, and that's being polite.

In case you haven't noticed, I despise the "new" ATT.
