Re: I wouldn't use Cogent even if they paid me!

Cogent is great. Its the FIOS of the internet, consumer/residential grade internet at reasonable prices. Remember a T3 and FIOS are basically the same, 1 costs $100, the other $10,000, which one would you pick?

Too many ISPs and backbone providers still see $$ signs in their eyes, and price as if its 1975 and Ma Bell is king, and in most cases they are Ma Bell because you have to peer with them to get good speeds and ping to the consumer ISPs behind them. $300 a month for a T1 of bandwidth? Even SDSL is cheaper.
