Hi Tim, Re: You must be very careful whenever you read these things Hah hah. It only took me a year of reading about the Terabit Switch Router from Avici to be informed that, well, uh, er, actually, a single box would be capable of switching 100Bbps, but that you could, ahem, aggregate the units. I'm getting better at asking the right questions. Thanks for the reminder that the marketing department often views the truth as merely one tool in their arsenal. :)) Re: Also, it's not uncommon to hype a product even though they may only have one working in the lab. Not to beat on a dead horse, but AVCI, once again fits the bill. Yet Mr. Market refuses to see this. Go figure. Best, Ray
