[olug-colo] Fiber for Old NG Building

Wed Apr 29 15:03:41 EDT 2009

Also, in dealing with the companies in the past. AT&T has about an  
inch-thick contract as opposed to Sprint's 3-pages.

Sprint's contracts are written in a way that even if you have a three  
year contract, you can opt out by telling them you are no longer able  
to pay.

Just things to look for as you deal with companies, they all have some  
hidden fees that you have to dig out of the paperwork.
