I just heard from a friend that a SonicWall rep was saying(dont you love 5th hand news) that Cisco is planning to crack down on PIXes being resold on Ebay by killing any and all support for them. No smartnet, no software, no activation keys etc..
I personally think it is a bunch of hooyie.. The number of PIX units being sold 2nd hand on Ebay is a grain of sand compared to national/world sales of new units and to expend that much effort, ill will and bad karma really doesnt strike me as the "cisco way" of doing business. MS maybe.. but not cisco. Am I off base here? even if it's a bunch of crap, it makes for some interesting thoughts.. whats next? no support for used routers? switches ? talk about killing the goose that lays golden eggs..
