I've gotten awesome pings from Equinix's Ashburn facility. Not sure where in Virginia Ashburn is, but I'd definitely recommend considering it.

Check http://www.defenderhosting.com . They're definately worth a look. (not the site at the moment, but the company behind it) We've been with them for about 2 years now and they've been fantastic. They're housed in Ashburn Equinix.

Excellent replies and suggestions! Thank you!
It looks like Equinix is one of the best in the area and we are touring the facility next week. Any suggestions/comments re Equinix providers are appreciated.
I have also heard that Switch and Data would be a good choice. Any comments re S&D? If so, which dc, the Reston or Vienna facility?
Any other info re quality colo providers in the N. VA area is appreciated
ThanksAllen Burnett StormHosts aburnett@stormhosts.com

I believe Superb.net have facilities in the Washington & Northern VA area - they've been doing colo for years through their premium offering, as well as starting the value service at superbservers.net recently.

Yes, check out superb.net & their value colo superbservers.net - excellent peering/network and their value colo is very affordable.
So far pleased with their superbservers.net low-cost server & it's LOW latency
