Re: [nznog] ATM Recommendation

24 Aug 2003

      I didn't bring it back on to the list and I am really not interested in the 
whole affair.
I have too many genuine enquiries coming in to have any interest in debating 
things with those on this list who obviously have too much time on their 
hands.

This is really an off topic subject and should not have been brought back
into the list Micheal.
Also, Tony is not the right person to question when it comes to Cisco
equipment there Micheal.
He has been around them for quite a while and knows his high-end stuff.

relax and take the pills man..
and it you note, I emailed you... NOT THE LIST !
If Cisco now produces an oc3 card at less than 10k it is news to me (
used NOT included ) , especially since I have been using and buying
Cisco's
since
...
they produced their first router. ( my first was a pair of mgx's )

Hello,
That is what you think. You are entitled to your opinion.
I have checked my list and there are at least 3 OC3 modules
all well under $3,000 NZD.
I have had several emails about this today. I am really not interested
in getting into a debate with, or answer time-consuming support
questions,
with people who clearly have no intention of actually buying anything
and/or aren't actually trying to learn anything of technical value.
I have already been stuffed around this week by an overseas list
member, who got me to order in several hundred dollars worth of
stuff especially for him, and then as soon as I had done this, he
disappeared.
I am very happy to assist list members with quick questions or
if they want to buy anything. However, like every other business in
the NZ computer industry, there is limits.

Not at all. I can offer a Cisco solution that would likely
leave change out  of $5K or $6K.

Oooooh, your clients are in for a bit of a shock.  ATM and
low cost do
...
not go in the same sentence together.  ISPs who have bought Cisco
equipment capable of ATM have spent 10s of thousands for
the correct
...
ATM card and the modular chassis to go with it.
On the other hand, if you are prepared to be a bit experimental
you
...
...
...
...

may be able to use a PC installed with Linux and a
supported PCI ATM
...
card.  I've never seen anyone try it though.
Regards,
RH.
