paul -
I agree 100%. Those are the systems I was referring to as being "pulled through" by the UE6500 and 10000 "magnet" systems.

As long as Sun maintains architectural dominance and has the back end systems with the most headroom, they will continue to sell the "whole package" including the front end pieces, even if those front end systems are not cost competitive - the overall benefits of a unified architecture outweigh the cost benefits of a cheaper front end, when the reduction in administrative costs and reduced hassle are factored in.
