Talking with friends in the that work at backbone companies. One of the funny stories I remember is the sales people having issues making sure that they actually charged more money for higher bandwidth connections due to some internal issues they almost set the prices for OC-12 lines (622 megabits) below that of OC-3 lines (155 megabits). As I understand it internally OC-3 lines where costing them slightly them more to deploy at the time.
