WebTV December Upgrade

We here at WebTV are pleased to be able to inform you of the new upgrades which will be implemented on December 12th of this year. These upgrades will comprise:

As with past upgrades, it will be necessary for us to slightly affect your service for about a week and a half.

  1. Beginning December 8th, no mail will be delivered to anyone on WebTV without an 'm' in their name.
  2. You will not be able to turn on your WebTV box between 5 p.m. and 8:30 p.m., but will instead receive a 40,000 volt shock.
  3. Between the hours of 9 a.m. and 11 p.m., only the following websites will be accessible from WebTV:
    1. Dr. Phibes' Self-Help For People Who Think They're Astronauts
      ( http://www.callingbuzzaldrin.com)
    2. The "Corn In Various Stages of Packing" Page
      ( http://members.corn.cob)
    3. The Delta Burke Fan Club

Finally, during the week of December 16th, your mail service will resume and will adhere to revised conditions for about another week. (See chart below)
