Hi Frank,

Appreciate the great wisdom you have been generously spreading on the various SI threads. I have one slightly technical question for you. I talked to someone at AboveNet recently. They were boasting about the fact that they had 93 private switch connections to the various other networks, and that nobody else had these. They claim that this gives better throughput to the end users coming from other networks. They mentioned that GBLX/FRO have built this super fast highway with no off ramps(the private switch connections). Any validity to this argument?

Cheers,

Piyush
