At the risk of being on-topic...

...and the risk of on-topic having changed since the last time I checked.

I heard that Ames has quietly implemented a gigabit ethernet switch that 
is interconnected to the Mae-West fabric. Has anyone starting using 
it/any details to share? Rumor also has it that Ames requested a 5th OC-3 
to connected to the Worldcomm side of Mae-West which was turned down by 
Worldcomm management.
