OK..now you guys are confusing me because I have ordered the 2950T-24 with EMI...and your blurb here SEEMS to state that it supports what I THINK I will need...am I missing something? Not that I can afford a 3550 with the EMI, I just wanted to know if there is anything really different between the 2950T with EMI and the 3550 as included in the lab.
