One of the issues that came up in the metrics that matter panel at HostingCon was the Rackspace IPO. Rackspace’s Red Herring estimated a $12-$16 price. Lou Honick believed that the IPO would price out in the higer range ($14 to $16) Elliot Noss in the lower range ($12 to $14). Each bet $500 on their position. Based on a final price of $12.50 (and falling), I say that Lou needs to fly up to Toronto and deliver the novelty check in person.
