Can't tell if driven solely by the marketing-idiocy-cycle or if there is also some deliberate subversion greasing the wheels.
BingoBoingo: Sweet, and having the two 10 Gbps ports is only a
$400 portion of the
$3840 quote.
BingoBoingo: Not at all, looking pretty good actually. Even unmetered is only
$4.6/mbps which shows transit price is not outta whack, if we had a customer planning to fully saturate connection.
BingoBoingo: Eh, figured someone would want surprise, but
$3840/month 8kva and 2x10bps links

mod6: i've worn out one pair, they took 'em back for
$100 and re-soled them.
mod6: certainly a lot better than the
$100 shitters.
mod6: i spend
$400 on mine. so yah, not cheap... but shit, what a difference.
phf`: not home, and i also didn't have time to process the information in detail yet, but i piped in since there was conversation. depends on what we want, baseline avg 3000 rub/mo
$50 to put a 1u rack, with a 100mbit line, 300W. line is typically not metered, but also not guaranteed. then depends on our needs, an unmetered guaranteed 100 mbit line will cost another ~~
$100 mo (to 1gbit around ~
$500), plus whatever over cap on power usage.

BingoBoingo: Well, if you send
$$$ they send you book with more grainy pics
mircea_popescu: this is all about as retarded as the average alt-scam. "here's a grainy pic of some dudes holding aks and random tattoo squiggles, send
$$$ to this address."
mircea_popescu: anyway, but the above line re "consolidated into" is there to explain how exactly
$item became shit : at time t0, there existed
$item, and it was respectable. at time t1, misguided "pluralism" allowed a bunch of rank imbeciles, such as here typified by charles f wilson, to open

mircea_popescu: they'll "offer you" to take them and set their fat ass down in a

BingoBoingo: <cruciform> man at till says it'll be
$10; you give him
$20 just because? << Well if
$20 is new from vendor and
$10 is with 200,000 miles of farts in the seats
diana_coman: cruciform, for one thing man at till is not producer - while I don't give "man at till" extra for the product itself (I might give him for the service if warranted, what), I might even want to give producer more if I consider what he does to be a great thing; payment is support at the end of the day; anyway keeping with your example the thing would be: man at till says it'll be
$10, do you ask around in the shop if anyone sells
diana_coman: by asciilifeform's calc earlier that would be
$15 saved
