    Please keep your posts to one forum. I understand your desire to save some $$$, but it gets confusing trying to keep up with one topic spread across multiple forums.

    Proper Posting Techniques

    Not a bad deal though.

    That does sound like very good pricing.

    Consider my area...

    Dedicated line broadband speeds and prices
    T-1 - 1.544 megabits per second (24 DS0 lines) Ave. cost $1,200./mo.
    T-3 - 43.232 megabits per second (28 T1s) Ave. cost $28,000./mo.
    OC-3 - 155 megabits per second (100 T1s) Ave. cost $49,000./mo.
    OC-12 - 622 megabits per second (4 OC3s) no est. price available
    OC-48 - 2.5 gigabits per seconds (4 OC12s) no est. price available
    OC-192 - 9.6 gigabits per second (4 OC48s) no est. price available

    good god! I didn't know there was something out there like those!!!

    how awsome would it be to run a counter strike server off the OC-192. PFtt nevermind you could run several!!

    Even some of the largest ISP's don't have OC192's

    They're still very rare last I understood.
    Hardware was JUST becoming available for them let alone selling them to customers.

    VERY few companies could ever conceive of needing that much for themselves.

    anybody interested in my offer. This kind of bandwidth is really good for anything. 100Mbps is incredible deal for $1000 a moth compared to T3 which is only 45mbps and costs about $10.000 a month.

    You could do Webhosting, media streaming, etc.... with this kind of bandwidth anything will go
