I'll chime in and say that the 7450/7750 are very nice boxes. Their
non-stop routing feature is something that other vendors are barely
starting to support, years after they started doing it. Now they are
onto features like cross-chassis 802.3ad, etc. that no one else is
doing in a SP router platform. The 7450 which is priced against
switch-like devices like the C76xx and the JMXxxx is a decent
competitor to those platforms. The 5260 is actually a decent NMS
which is something I never thought I'd say about a NMS, although the
pricing model isn't very good.
