It was neither a cheap nor an easy proposition for us to get our router into PAIX. In fact, its probably the most expensive bandwidth I run since the DS3 is way under utilized.

Finding another peering point where I can get 20+ willing peers like PAIX is a struggle.
if and when paix links to mae-west-ames, you can get a link to the FDDI exchange. there is always PBNap and MAE-WEST-ATM (tho I dont know the costs)
