Hey,
        OK, I have to say, in their defense...what little
technology/engineering they DO have, have been very solid on the T-1 we have
from them.  I've had only a single problem about a week ago when one of
their routers stopped announcing a route Herndon-->Chicago (oops), and we've
had that T-1 in for over 7 months now.

        They are doomed, yes, but they do have a decent engineering staff.

Nice, objective source :).  I do know of someone who has a T1 to them for
the past 6 months or so, and are not terribly pleased.  It seems that
laying off most of your tech staff can in fact, affect business...
