Internet Nebraska's NOC in Lincoln doesn't really promote the
service, but they will co-locate for prices similar to those that
were originally posted.  You can find the appropriate contact info
at  http://www.INebraska.com

I go back & forth about what to do about this.  I also have a DL380 to
which I'd like to provide faster public access, since I host lots of
images from there.  Alas, I also upload all of these images myself from
home, so relocating the server upstream only solves half my problem.
It sucks that Lincoln doesn't have any home Internet offerings anywhere
near as fast/cheap as Cox provides in Omaha.  1 Mbps uplink for just
$100/mo?  I'm drooling.  For now, I'm still living with my fleet of
HP/Compaq servers in my 42U rack in my basement, all served up over my
dinky 384 Kbps uplink.  I'm about to run a second 20A circuit over to
that corner to handle the power needs.  I'm tired of my UPSes blowing
the breaker every time a machine powers up.
