You have ANY idea how much 2 Gbps is?

I know but misread it totally :) I read it as 2gig and missed the 2gbps :)
Time for a coffee I think

You are confusing Terabyte per month with Gigabit per second :glugglug

Just realised that. Totally misread the post. :D

Hey its alright, must be early where you are :winkwink:

Tipsy 02-22-2003 07:09 PM

Still gave me a fun few minutes making an ass of myself :)

Mind you, I'd still say someone with just a few hundred AVS sites is talking more BS than my posts above if he says it costs $100k a month in hosting.

Anyway all the specualtion will not figure it out.

Only the guy writing out those 108K checks knows.

Lateish. 2am but been a long day and I'm getting over flu. Still, bought a smile to my face. If you can't laugh at yourself....

True - mind you if he's shouting it out on boards I'd love to know why he says he uses that much. Makes me very curious.

If you are paying $500 for 2 gig a month, I think you may want to consider switching hosts :winkwink:

People had already said it was POSSIBLE, the question became how PROBABLE it was that a guy running shitloads of "AVS Sites" would be using 2 gigabits....

you're in that industry (hosting).. what do you think the probability is?

My reference to rackshack was to make the point that they are using around 4-5 gbps of bandwidth.. and they have a MASSIVE operation over there built on cheap whored out bandwidth prices (which, for reference, I see as a good thing) :)

Well, it seems a bit unlikely... someone making AVS sites and using the equivalent of, say, 60 high-placed large movie galleries on the Hun each day?
Or, at servers doing 50 Mbps each, a few hundred AVS sites on 40 different servers?

Ya who knows.
Can't really speculate, and I cant believe I did this much LOL

I think its time to pull out Mr. http://phatservers.net/gives.gif

Eh? 2gig is nothing. It wouldn't even run you $500 at many hosts.

2gbit per month is uh... a good wholesale price $30- $40,000/mo

What are you talking about?

Glad I'm not the only idiot to not read posts before posting myself :)

Hey you're confusing 2 gigabyted with 2 gigabits per second. Two gigabits per second sustained for a whole month is 648,000 gigabytes transferred. Here, use this handy bandwidth calculator:
