   "Everyone" uses Cisco and "the net" sucks, so what does that tell you?

a) That the backbones are bandwidth constrained.
b) That there's no credible alternative for a high end box (yet).
c) That there are some unresolved problems with cisco's high end box
   implementations.
d) That Dennis is still slinging mud instead of facts.
