What's the average price for a single rack there?

What's the average price for a single rack there? Thanks, I looked into Equinix a few months back (LA) and I know that all of there facilities are really nice and I have not found any bad feedback on the company. They are also really expensive! They wanted 1,500/mo just for a cabinet (no bandwidth) + on top of that about $2,000.00 in set up fees. They where not (or at least my sales rep) willing to drop the set up fee a little. They definitely did not want to drop the monthly cabinet fee. JBIZ718 06-09-2002, 02:19 PM Hello I think equinix chicago is awesome. My friend Jordan at Servercentral.net has 2 cages there and its overall amazing. Pretty much all the bandwidth out there, and never any backup problems unwaw 06-09-2002, 08:59 PM Is that www.equinix.com? Thanks. NetXL 06-09-2002, 09:37 PM unwaw, yes that's their website. I am not too fussed about the price, like Joe said, there's a massive choice of bandwidth which would be great for expansion. How would I go about getting quotes from the bandwidth providers there?
