Pricing for Comcast Connectivity

Fri Sep 9 19:11:01 UTC 2011

Hi Oscar,

John is right about the NDA.  Feel free to reach out to Steve Lacoff,
as noted at http://www.comcast.com/dedicatedinternet/

Volume, location, term, etc. are all factors to consider.  Steve will
be at NANOG if you, or others have questions.

Cheers, -ren
