Dear MPullee (and others who have posted on this question) We have discussed with Boardwatch their methodology in doing these tests. Our information is that they used 36 test machines in 27 cities. None of their machines was connected directly to PSINet; 18 were connected through MCI, 13 through UUNet, and 5 through Sprint. As a result, we would expect those connected directly to post superior results. We would also expect the results for PSINet to be less favorable than if we had been directly connected. In fact, our engineers are favorably surprised that our results were as favorable as they were (certainly not "bottom of the barrel", but neither as good as we know our network to be), given the poor connectivity we see through some of the providers hosting the test servers. We have asked that the playing field be levelled in these tests, but have yet to see it be. Hope this helps. David Kunkel
