ATM: A Total Mess.

or do folks have plans to migrate to gig ether (or to definitely Not to, for some reason?)

For connectivity to NAP's like CA*Net 3, GigE.

(or change 'gig ether' to some other imminent.technology.that.might.be. compelling.enuf.to.displace.atm)

Problem with gigE is distance though... So ATM may be the answer for the short term.

if u wanna send messages 2 me i'll compile/post to save b/w (which presumably saves much more b/w if am posting via atm switches but etc)

I'm not even touchin that one with 11-foot pole! :-)
