If you had acted last week, you'd have gotten a 27600ish ASN... If you hurry, you can still snag one before 30000 (ARIN is in the 29700's as of this writing). Then again, if you're bored enough, you could try to time your app to get 30000 even, or wait a little bit and try for 31337 (though I suspect that will be hotly contested). Unfortunately, ARIN won't let you buy just an ASN (after all, why reuse limited resources when they can make you take a new number, and don't forget that maintainer fee :P). You pretty much have to buy a whole company, or at least their "assets that entitled them to the ASN" such as multiple transits or an existing customer base. They might not consider buying a defunct company to be one of those situations, so you might not want to advertise that, particularly when it comes time to transfer it. :) -- Richard A Steenbergen <[email protected]> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras GPG Key ID: 0xF8B12CBC (7535 7F59 8204 ED1F CC1C 53AF 4C41 5ECA F8B1 2CBC)
