read this before you consider EXODUS
http://fnews.yahoo.com/street/99/09/01/valley_990901.html Already there are signs that Exodus' relations with some high-profile clients are in jeopardy. Service problems are serious enough that they've generated high-level tensions between Exodus and online auctioneer eBay (Nasdaq:EBAY - news) , one of Exodus' largest and most prominent customers, according to two people familiar with the situation. In the past few weeks, eBay has been in talks with several Exodus competitors for a new contract to move a portion of its Web servers to a new vendor, the sources say. Exodus Chief Executive Ellen Hancock says its relationship with eBay is in good shape. eBay spokesman Kevin Pursglove declined to say whether it was mulling a move of its primary Web servers but says that a top priority is to figure out where to house a key backup system.

What was the point of posting this again? Every promising local ISP/colo provider has problems, since you cannot please everyone all of the time. What really matters is how _you_ are being treated and are they delivering the services they promised you when the contracts were signed. This sort of fruitless bitching pretty much serves no useful purpose. Content: I keep hearing about schemes like FastPath (tm, pat pending) and ASAP (tm) because apparently the BGP path selection is inadequate. Could someone actually give some concrete examples or should I just chalk it up to rumors since operationally, BGP couldn't be worse. /vijay
