Hello all,

I was wondering if anyone has a good, trusted, non-partial source for  
3rd party testing and/or comparisons of the major routing hardware  
vendors. I'm willing to pay for a subscription / membership to an  
organization if the information is well assembled recent.  
Specifically, I'd like (love) to see a comparison between Juniper MX  
series, Cisco 6500/7600 series, Brocade XMR/MLX series, and any others  
that I don't even know about.

If your company has recently (say the past 18 months?) completed an  
analysis and you can provide the results, I can keep them private  
(this is only for my use, not official decision making).

Does anyone happen to have a source they would be willing to pass  
along? Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
