The Atlas V, in my opinion, is the better of the EELVs. Sorry to say it, but if I had a satellite to launch, I would definately prefer it to be launched by ILS instead of Boeing. Their customer service seems to be of a higher caliber, and their launch vehicles seem to be more reliable. Of course, I don't happen to have a telcommunications satellite laying around in my bedroom, so I really am in no position to judge! :)

Don't be sorry. Maybe Boeing will get the message!
