I'm pretty sure this isn't any bigger than yours posturing. What I
understood this to mean was:
1) The focus of MFNX/AboveNet is not exclusively "hosting" but rather
connectivity.
and to further that end..
2) MFNX/AboveNet is trenching and building out large amounts of
optical infrastructure.
3) There isn't any "hosting focused" company out there who is trenching
fiber for connectivity.
While #3 may be open to debate #1 and #2 are fairly clear.
