My thanks to the folks who took a moment to contribute; the outcome of my inquiry was "nah; I guess the price I got quoted really isn't all that bad, given the quality of the datacenter involved (which is quite nicely done).
And the fact that they don't charge cross connect fees; I just got back from touring Equinix/S&D. Plant's nice enough, especially if you need -48v... but the cross-connect charges definitely put you in the "are you shopping the right category of data center" picture: $500 setup, $225 for coax/325 for fiber. For an empty cable. Yeah, I know, I know; being surprised at the magnitude of that means this really is my first rodeo. It had to happen some time. :-) Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
