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