Issue with gas is not only the $$, It consumes a lot more power (extar fans to keep them cool) and needs extra component on a system to support it (pull up termination. It also needs funny power lines ,-5V or 1.2, and they have no migration path, since the signals are larger than other available technologies. I am sorry to get so technical here , but most VTSS customers will someday learn that CMOS will do the same thing with lower $$ , lower power consumption, no extra power lines, no components to support it..... But mean while VTSS will enjoy a good ride, since once you are designed in these systems (datacom/telcom) , you stay in there for 5 yrs. at least 5 yrs. or so
