K- be sure to call newegg at 3am when your core router is acting up and have them walk you thru a solution.
Sorry- I just don't like seeing IS bashed when I think their pricing is fair- you're buying HW, support, and profit. Aren't you guys in business yourself? Would you let your customers modify your Internet service equipment so they could save a few bucks by not buying from you since you charge more? Is your router really the device on your network where your decisions are made on price only? Ok- said my bit! Don't want to sound all crabby or anything.
