Looking at the prices for 9901/02/03/04, and the licensing models for NCS5700, I can assure you, "it won't be $80,000". More like "$100k for the Chassis, and then another $300k for all required licenses, to be renewed every 3 years" (subject to bazaar style discount negotiations that make any sort of budget planning impossible)... Cisco is a textbook example how to drive away a truly loyal user base, and then blaim it on stock market analysts ("they said that any company without a recurring revenue software model will be dead soon"). gert -- "If was one thing all people took for granted, was conviction that if you feed honest figures into a computer, honest figures come out.
