     DC's offer much more than just the advantage of having many
    providers interconnecting, and providing cheap bandwidth (cheaper
    then at home). They have the redundancy for both  bandwidth and
    power, they have the cooling systems, they have the security etc.<br>
    <br>
     I won't have any problems hosting some of my servers at home when I
    eventually get the NBN (hoping by end of 2013!), but they will be
    things that if they were off for a day or 2 I wouldn't really care.
    Perfect example is some time in the near future 'Essential Energy'
    is cutting my power off completely for half a work day to do some
    work in the area. My house certainly doesn't have a 6-7 hour battery
    array, or a genset!<br>
    <br>
    Anyways, I'm pointing out things that 99% of this list would already
    know!<br>

          sure... but given the typical ratio of upload data... just how
          contended is that direction?<br>
