What sets us apart from the chris mauritz's and all the other wannabe 
entrepreneurs who lease a frac-T1 line from alternet/sprintlink etc and set 
up shop with two store-configured BSDI boxes is that we do it as a service,
not to generate profits. 
 
Perhaps you may want to concentrate on flaming your competition in Chicago
rather than flaming a system you know absolutely nothing about here in
New York. I'm sure we all remember how long the Chicago flame-wars lasted
this year.

Those who live by the sword die by the sword.
