I could understand it if Atlanta had 20 or 30 exchange points, but when there is only one exchange the city deserves better than a mickey-mouse 5th floor operation.
Why not? the Atlanta NAP has 4 times as much space as MAE-East. We are not a mickey-mouse operation. We started with backup everything, and with more hardware then any of MFS NAPs have started with. We started our NAP with gigaswitch, generator, dual fiber entrances, backup power feeds, and more. Most NAPs don't start with this stuff they grow into it. Please don't slam the Atlanta-NAP until you have check us and a few other NAPs out. I think you will see that we are not a mickey-mouse operation. P.S. Have you check out what MAE-Atlanta is starting out with? They have less space then us, will not be up for 6 - 8 more months, will not have a UPS, and will only start with a catlyst. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
