Firstly, cross connect management is not a tricky task, it's management, secondly, we are thankfully not Telehohse and do t have years of legacy cabling to deal with, thirdly we offer fantastic colocation facilities with great connectivity for a fair price, we do just that and do it very, very well, that's all, we don't want EBITDA, cos you only want that if you're selling (we are not for sale), so if you want 5kw racks in a connected DC of Tier iii standard, we are here to help and always will be.
