The logic behind that is a colo server will probably be a powerfull server, so more likely to use the allocated BW.
Most dedicated servers, mainly in the low end, use maybe 20% of the allocated bandwith.
Where I will agree with you is that a colo can be more interesting because much cheaper to upgrade ...

Directfiesta, you're exactly right. There are pros and cons to each approach. Many of our larger bandwidth customers do in fact colo with us, but there are many valid reasons for choosing a dedicated or a managed dedicated server. It's all about your initial budget, support requirements, and your overall business goals.
