I've been with Integra Telecom (nee ELI) for quite a few years. If you're
big enough that you need somewhere between a full cabinet and
a small cage, but are happy with a default route then they're well worth
a look. Solid provider, and very helpful NOC / support (even when
dealing with someone dumb enough to have let his switch
autonegotiate...). They're in Santa Clara.
I've also had a couple of U of space at Hurricane Electric in Fremont
forever, mostly as a backup location, and it's been pretty solid. It's been
years since I've actually been there, so I don't even remember what
the physical facility is like. (World+Dog resells space there, including
http://www.asaservers.com/ who'll sell you a box and host it at HE
for you).
Cheers,
Steve
