On many of the public colo houses earnings calls, they told analysts that they are trying to keep contracts to one year so they can raise prices year over year, that power pricing is fluid and many facilities are being expanded both space and environmental, that most locations really are full or being held down by lack of cooling for existing dense rack space. Basically get ready to hold out your wallet.
Is it that? Or, is it some of these companies no realising that charging $250 for a 20 amp outlet is less than their cost, even three years ago? -- Alex Rubenstein, AR97, K2AHR, alex@nac.net, latency, Al Reuben Net Access Corporation, 800-NET-ME-36, http://www.nac.net
