&gt;I had to go to E Deltacom to add some memory to a customers box  
&gt;once.  I was very impressed in two ways.  One their facility seemed  
&gt;to be world class.  Two, it seemed they didn't have very much  
&gt;business.  I knew they had been there a while and was surprised by  
&gt;how empty the place was.  A guess would be they had to do some  
&gt;creative accounting to appear profitable.

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&quot;The sale of e^deltacom represents a continuation of our strategy to
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;focus on our core competencies and to strengthen our balance sheet,&quot;
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;        
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;Translation:  &quot;We are not competent enough to run e^deltacom and
&gt;&gt;&gt;generate a profit&quot; said ITC^DeltaCom CEO.

&gt;&gt;..or they saw a peak in profitability and wanted the cash to focus  
&gt;&gt;elsewhere.
&gt;&gt;Something is up in the hosting/datacenter world these days,  
&gt;&gt;Interland just sold
&gt;&gt;all of their dedicated hosting servers/services to Peer1 today.  I  
&gt;&gt;suspect it
&gt;&gt;is just a lot of market consolication, sort of the same thing you  
&gt;&gt;see in the
&gt;&gt;wireless and telco space.
