Lets not forget, the list price for a limited PTX1000 is $650,000. Even with a substantial 95 percent off list discount, it is nowhere close to the same ballpark as the Arista solution. Because Arista has no other routing solution out there, I think they have a pricing advantage. The spent almost

It's very counter-productive to speak about actual buy prices, as those vary greatly. Take it with grain of salt. I'm sure people are paying under 15k and over 30k for 7280. Scale on PTX1k is much wider, and I know lot of people who have not even included JNPR in short-list due to the price being

I agree that the PTX1K is too expensive as well. The QFX10K is a viable alternative. It's basically the same hardware just different (less) RAM and no MEF certification (PTX1K is certified).
