Money in an acquisition doesn't go to the _company_ though - it goes to the shareholders of the acquired company.  Now - should Cox have invested more in their infrastructure?  Sure.  However, having a perfect infrastructure isn't easy to do.  I'm not making excuses for them - but it very well could be things that are out of their immediate control (one could say they should have mitigated that risk, obviously) - possibly too heavy of a dependance on Akamai?  Not sure.  Having been on the systems side of things - I do wish them Godspeed in resolving the issues.
