Alex, *I* can't make any claims, since that would be making a forward-looking statement, y'know... and after today's WorldCom "events", I can hardly say that trusting analysts is a good thing, but if you take the time to do some research on ALGX, you'll probably see things like: consistency in meeting Wall St. expectations, a stong management team (after all, they *did* build MFS), and a conservative balance sheet. We're talking about some experienced, reputable good ol' boys who know enough only acquire profitable businesses for pennies on the dollar, and only build from success-based capital. If you take a good, hard look at the company as a whole, you'll see a company that has yet to deviate from its original plan, regardless of economic climate, and will tell you is still on target for profitability. These are all things I've learned from my own due dilligence via research on the web, and I'm sure you'll find the same. -Dan -----Original Message----- From: alex@yuriev.com [mailto:alex@yuriev.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 26, 2002 1:08 PM To: Mitchell, Dan Cc: nanog@merit.edu Subject: RE: Sprint peering policy
But that's just what I've "heard".
On a side note: Folks should keep an eye on Allegiance Internet (the folks I work for). They picked up the old Digex / Intermedia Business Internet backbone and are in the process of integrating it (under AS2548). Financially solid company, very easy to work with, and have some strong uptimes.
On what basis do you claim that Allegiance Internet is going to be in business by end of the summer? Alex
