Interestingly, it's arguable that once you pay for the OC3 (let's say $5k,
for sake of arguement) and the AADS port (another $5k), you're at $64/meg,
and thats assuming a 95th utilization of 155.
Assuming a more real world utilization of 120 mb/s, at best, you're at
$83/meg, somewhat more expensive than what several providers are selling
at these days.
