Joe, Actually I have been giving some thought to this new device, cb 9000 jr. The only place this would be useful is somewhere where you owuld have used the superstack switches before, but you need a little more intelligence and an ATM option. This could be a big seller for COMS, but some sales 10%-25% will likely come at the expense of the superstack equipment. Having this many prots in one unit (rack mount) is nice, but since you can't have a redundant switching fabric, I myself fail to see the need for one, unless you do want ATM. Regards, Steve PS. THis is a preliminary assessment.. I'm gonna try to get documentation on the damned thing.
