I found it a few days ago. I agree, the 64 port design is critical, because it basically avoids all the additional "hops" introduced by cascading and multistage designs. It also provides the type of throughput you would want to get gig speeds to workstations on a LAN and may be a competitive advantage over systems that offer 2-4 gig ports and a large number of ethernet/fast ethernet ports. The other interesting part about the updated spec sheets is the latency figures for the "old" gig switches. They were incredibly long. George D.
