Please not, that I had berween 12/1999 and 12/2004 a contract with a Parisian ISP for a OC-3 and Hosting of one 19" Rack (210cm, 600kg). I have payed including unlimited traffic 499.998 French Francs (76.000 Euro) per month and my own Class-C Block registered at RIPE. I heared (on debian-isp) that in the USA you can get a BGP4 routed STM4 (622MBit) Fiber Optic for only 120.000 US$ PER YEAR !!! Arghhhhh... Do I live in the false country?
