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 with a dedicated 100MBit in bandwidth for $100-200.00 like some of these companies advertise? Not a chance.

I never said $100 for a server and 100M, I only said that if we sell like 30 servers I have no problem with throwing in 100M of bandwidth for free as the cost of the bandwidth is negligible.
But I agree, while the mainstream is mostly competing on price we are often asked for quality in this industry over price. I don't see myself selling 100TB servers for 150 bucks anytime soon ;)
