whats the diffrence? u sell a dedicated server on a 100Mbit port for 249 and server space on a 10mbit a sec dedicated port for 265

what is the diffrence? the 249 sounds better so why is the other more expensive?

quite honestly you would better off colocating on the 149 plan as you will get the same b/w as the 249 dedicated server

im more interesting, for the sake of this conversation anyway, the question of speed on the line

which plan is going to give me faster speed, and by how much and why

prolly.. the same, only difference might be the machine(hardware)
Colocation means: you supply your own server/system to fdc which hosts it in their facility.

the difference is that on the first one you are on the shared network
with the second you get your own private dedicated line and it is NOT affected from dos attacks or downtimes from the rest of the network
if you need quality bandwidth go with the dedicated one

With the first one they don't guarantee you can push 100Mbit. You might get 15Mbit you might get 1Mbit. Because it is a shared connection. They will be affected when FDC starts getting tight on bandwidth where with the 10Mbit dedicated... it is all your bandwidth right from the start...
