Excuse me. Raised floor vs. overhead.

They are meant to be informative. Maybe you have no idea on what XFP or SFP+ is because you've been running a Gigabit based network and haven't made the jump to 10GE yet - the debate might give you the top 3-5 points on why each might be the right option for you. And then, of course, there is a fun factor.
