V480s are fast. They're very good gear, but unfortunately ebay prices haven't sunk sufficiently yet. These nice pieces of equipment are usually sold by slimeball resellers who unfortunately know what these are and how much they're really worth, plus of course the nice fat provision, so the price sucks. Unless of course you run into one of those "boots to some kind of a prompt" auctions. :) This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
