I don't think GM has axed their EV1. Haven't heard anything lately from their attempts at electric cars, but from what I can tell it's still on their site.
DS1(Digital Signal Level 1, T1 is the old nomenclature(As in T carrier)) throughput is 1.544Mbit/s(You have to tack on overhead and all that so in reality it's about 1.1Mbit/s, also depends on if it's dedicated or frame(frame network congestion)). It doesn't compare to cable in maximum throughput(note maximum throughput, because cable is subject to the same bottlenecks and congestion as any transport on a public network, but we're talking about business/hardcore access). And, yes, a DS1 is way more expensive than cable. I wish people would quit saying a(as in one) DS1 is a viable alternative, it's like it's a damn buzz word or something.
What was it for Rogers? For every x number subscribers, x number of augmentations to the main access would take place to handle the traffic. 1 cable user on Rogers would take up 2 DS1s with the caps that are in place(I think it's 128K upload and 2Mbit download).
So more people are going to use it(cable), even for things against the license agreement.
Slack is the only distro I use. I use it as a base install and go from there. I guess it's just the fact of how much you actually want to use the CLI instead of a GUI.
Slack still has a good following and I'll continue to use it.
Depending on if it's a PBX or Centrex that the hotel is using. Centrex is controlled by the LEC, the customer need only to purchase the number of trunks required to go into their premise.
I know AT&T Canada Corp. is pushing Centrex more, in most cases it's less expensive to use, because the CLEC(us(AT&T Canada Corp.)) in this case looks after the equipment, making sure it has the latest software load, etc. The customer does not have to purchase the PBX equipment.
Small companies and apartment buildings seem to use PBX more, because the number of lines needed is usually very small.
I can't see a hotel using a DMS-x switch. For a DMS 100/200 the line size can grow to over 135,000 lines. -------

Lest we forget the other big three company.

I think it's more like an AT-PT. Still damn friggin' cool.
