Mark, I suspect they confused 'mega' with 'kilo'.
They mention 60 megawatts of power. It seems to me that the focus shouldn't be on the easy task of renumbering a /24 in 85 days (is it really just a /24?), but on moving the servers :-)
There is mention of increased power charges (up to $18,000) and usage of 60Mw. Isn't $20/amp/month still a standard charge in co-lo sites? If so, $18,000 buys 900amps. With 120V service, we get (120*900)/1.67 = 65kw. 65kw over 30 twenty-four hour days is about 47Mw. So, the customer is getting a deal.
