I think I agree. Abovenet's ISX sites (while world class) are really just
points of sale for the company's real product, which is connectivity. A
fair number of Abovenet's customers purchase connectivity without also
purchasing colocation -- and I can't think of any "hosting" company for
which that would be true.
(No "hosting" company of which I'm aware has its own global optical network.)
