It appears that MFS finally went and did it, and the mae-east we all came to know and love has finally been turned off. Please bow your heads for a moment of silence.

So what is everyone going to do instead?

Join MAE-East-ATM?

Join PAIX-VA?

Join ISPCondo? (Abovenet's NAP in 8100 Boone)

WorldCom wants you to move to MAE-East-ATM, eventually moving everyone to their new facility in Ashburn VA. I think/hope most people will just move to PAIX-VA or Equinix-VA, or both. I tried to think of a good parody of American Pie for this occation, but I didn't want to stretch FDDI to end in a long-I, so I'm just gonna go with: Ding Dong the Wicked Witch is Dead. Now if only they'd kill off ATM too. -- Richard A Steenbergen <ras@e-gerbil.net> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras PGP Key ID: 0x138EA177 (67 29 D7 BC E8 18 3E DA B2 46 B3 D8 14 36 FE B6)
