As for the "minimal downtime" question and possible effects on other ECNs, quote feeds, cable TV reception, UFO sightings, and early onset male pattern baldness, and so on, I would guess that while Island and/or MCI checked and/or re-set their own systems (explored their "cloud"? - never heard that term before), everyone else got spiked and spooked as well.

Let's just hope that the "experience" of an outage hasn't traumatized the cloud.

BTW - thanks for the info, anyway. It's always nice to know that a broker's excuse is honest.

Guess this is why they call it "the final frontier."
