I'm very serious.
I've read it over and over again on the various list from those who
resell other bandwidth bashing cogent.
It's a stratergy, if you sell high, bash the low.
makes sense.
So if Matt says Cogent is the worse, I want him to back it up with facts.
I can point to some facts that say otherwise. Thier revenues increase
every quarter, and their bit price goes down.
How can everyone not like cogent, when their sales keeps going up?
Or why do some people not like cogent?

George,
I have read this email three times and still can't determine whether you are
sincerely asking a question(s) or whether you are stirring the pot here.
Please clarify professionally. I actually have been enjoying Matt's posts
this morning. I found them to be very informative. While we don't purchase
anything from Cogent, I still like to have my thumb on the pulse of the
whole industry, from top to bottom.

Widely known "where" Matt?
I'd like to know how you guys get the pulse of what everyone is thinking.
As for being the red headed step child nobody likes Mike, Do you think
they actually "like" each other, especially one as aggressive as Cogent
who is making the others drop their pricing?

Is anyone using Cogent as a bandwidth provider? Pros and cons?
Cogent is awful and widely known for it. Nevertheless, the do have an
important place in the industry. If you use them for an upstream make
sure you have another one and understand enough about BGP to get around
the traffic engineering they do.
