Original Poster referred to the fact that Carl Icahn's holding company (who owns majority of shares of XO) also owned a large chunk of GX (not L3) and attempted to take buy out the rest, he subsequently "lost" the battle for control of GX and sold off what he owned (at a very nice profit). In defense of XO: I'm doing >10k$/month with XO. I could probably tell more XO horror stories than you. I've meet some truly crooked sales people and completely retarded provisioning people. (Some quotes: "60 hudson? let me see if its on-net". "jiggabit ethernet? Is that like a T1?"). However, there are some things XO does just fine: my DS1 loops work like champs and are installed correctly, first time, every time. My LD PRIs are also like that. Their telephony people are reasonably intelligent and you can to the translations people some sense too. Just don't try to buy any IP from XO - for whatever reason, you will end up screwed. (Nevertheless, if/when you get it installed, it is rock-solid). -alex _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Biz mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-biz
