The 24x10G Typhoon card was always an expensive sod, but the
oversubscription (in terms of PPS) was very, very low. A good card if
you're taking on a lot of DoS traffic regularly, but part of the reason
it's so damned expensive.

The tomahawk based card is not much cheaper. Our traffic didn't increase much over the last years, so it's hard to effort these expensive high dense cards at the moment. So pretty bad time to invest into Cisco gear here at the moment.

So that's one school of thought. On the other hand, I personally expect
QNX to live on a lot longer, in order to provide support for the droves
of 9001s bought by big customers for aggregation work.

We shall have to see, but I'm certainly an advocate of buying into
RSP880-RL and MOD200(-RL) instead of any Typhoon based gear, if you can.
It's been good advice since the MOD200 appeared, I think.

RSP440 is going EOS this summer, so not much left to chose from. :-/
