I beg to differ. Especially in your assertion that "every ISP" does
anything.
While it may be a case with your company, I can assure you that the VLAN/shared bandwidth is still the norm around many of the most popular, or recognized, U.S. based ISP's. Many on WHT actually have talked about this in regards to how they are getting their bandwidth prices down so low on some of their "offers" to remain competitive.
Do you realistically believe that someone would get a Dual or Quad Core, fully managed, with a dedicated 100MBit in bandwidth for $100-200.00 like some of these companies advertise? Not a chance.
