Sandy B.: yes, it's all cogent
bob: ok thats all i needed to know thank you! - bob
and your point is...

seriously, I don't give a flying fuck if it's Cogent or bandwidth from Mars, we use it for movie galleries and had 0 downtime so far (knocking on wood). I understand you're promoting a host in your sig and all, I'm just telling this from an unbiased point of view, ie: THE CUSTOMER. We host with Natnet, Reflected and HiVelocity, and all of them are perfect for what we need. Furthermore, having exactly the same results from Natnet as far as uptime and speed comes (a host WE LOVE, btw), hivelocity costs us up to 22% the value of Natnet. As a businessman, a 78% saving is, to say the least, something to consider

Of course, I won't discuss about your server deals since I never tried your host, but it seems you manage to find a problem with every other service in competition with yours, as seen in this very same thread. Honestly, it sounds more desperate than professional, just my
