In what city or cities does Time Warner / Road Runner have its web hosting facilities?

I have a potential client in California that does not want to host with me because I am not located in California. I am assuming neither is Time Warner, but she wants to use them because they provide her cable modem, and she assumes her website will be hosted in California because of the cable modem.

Anyone know of reasons I can use to argue against this or any potential problems of being in California?

First reason
RR dont do webhosting......
TW does. Thats why they r keeping TW and RR seprate. If i m right RR is owned by AT&T. Thats the last time i heard i could be wrong. So simply get refrence from some where and like that RR dont do Professional hosting. As far as how can u convince give them some refrences of your clients. happy one :)
ALso compare your network or ur data center with some regular data center tell them ups and downs and play with words.....

One more reason give her 30 day money back guarantee or give them 10-15 days trial :)

Yea the money back guarantee is a great idea.

Time Warner owns RR from what I can see on their site.

I think RR does hosting, www.rrbiz.com - thet is their business class cable and it mentions web hosting as well. No info though, they make you call them.

I may be wrong, but I believe Time Warner facilities are in Brookefield Wisconsin.

There are various other datacenters that use Time Warner bandwidth in California, they have several POPs there. I'd look into one of those, although Time Warner isn't the best bandwidth.

I do not mean data centers using TW, but rather where TW's facilties data centers are for the hosting they sell.

Road Runner (at least where I am at) is connected to the AOL backbone (which sucks). Time Warner Telecom has many datacenters throughout the United States, more info can be found at http://twtelecom.com

Time Warner has data centers in multiple city's across the US. I know they have a data center in Tucson but I believe they have about two dozen data centers across the US.
