so basically, you will get 14U and 240GB of bandwith ... That's a little bit to expensive for me (especially if I only get capped bandwith), but of course ... you may argue that Verio is big and hance they worth the money ... For comparison, Dialtone Internet charges around $300/mo for 1/2 rack (21 U) and around $2.5/GB which I think is still cheaper than Verio (but again, DI is smaller than Verio) ... Or, if you go with above.net, I think they sell bandwith for $650-$700 per mbps and $1000 or so for a full rack .... HE.net charges around $400 for a full cabinet and around $500 per mbps ....

So, I think the deal is all right, though not really superb (especially since they will charge you by 95th percentile)

cheers,

Also they are in the chicago land area, and I want one that is less then a hour drive, thats why my choices are limited.

Verio's connectivity is generally considered to be good. Their support seems to range from terrific to terrible, depending on who you deal with.
