I still needle my Cisco rep about that from time to time. IMHO, the
6500/7600 split was one of the dumbest, most poorly thought-out decisions
Cisco ever made. That and they still haven't given me the warm-and-fuzzy
about the plans for IOS licensing.
Where I work, we're heavily invested in 6500s in the core and I don't see
that changing any time soon. The borders are Junipers because they 'just
plain work' :)
