Maybe hushmail blocked it? :)
@ Everyone else: thank you for the useful information. I didn't mean to come off as being bratty with my competition notation, it was meant as a bump to the posting and not an insult at anyone.
Thanks for clarifying.
More info: yes, I was planning on having some co-lo sort of stuff, maybe running a dedicated server provider. However on my own IP space, and a good method of getting bandwidth of cheap. Stuff like paying 5€/GB makes me feel sick.
Hmmmm. Me thinks that's a no go. You are entering an incredibly stiff competitive space. If you do have some magic pixie dust, I would sell it to the highest bidder. :) (I do believe people were seeking pixie dust in the 444 thread if I recall correctly). Not to be snide, but what makes you think you have something that will let you break into the colo market against a huge assortment of players? (ref the lots and lots and lots of money response). You'll need some hefty capital to attract customers. Plus if you can only compete on price, the established players will just cut costs to match you. That's all my opinion of course. -- Charles N Wyble charles () knownelement com @charlesnw on twitter http://blog.knownelement.com Building alternative,global scale,secure, cost effective bit moving platform for tomorrows alternate default free zone.
