PixIndex - At less than $1/gig I run with a high margin! Now that my fixed facility, employee and bandwidth expenses are covered, it's all gravy. I've got enough capacity in bandwidth to triple sales and enough physical space and power in the facility to quadruple sales.

Phil - I've got a 200mbit multimode fiber handoff. My billing isn't 95th percentile, it's fixed for that amount of pipe. For the sake of argument about Verio, that was just two months ago that I could have gotten a gigE in Detroit for 35k. Things are different here, their capacity here is undersold... versus other cities where their prices are likely double.

Sleazy - Want to save some money? I'll throw up a server for free for you and you can test me out for a month or two. I'm one of those people that's cheaper than $1 per gig in quantity.

L0stmind - As far as I'm concerned, anyone selling a 10mbit handoff for $450 is on CRACK. I sell 10mbit fully managed with a server for $1500/month. Anyone that is selling for $450 is either overselling their network or counting on the fact that their customers won't use all their bandwidth.. or cutting some other corners.

Cheers,

Brad
