Who's gonna be first to get their hands on these juniper switchesthen?

The flash demo looks rather kewl, then I searched about on the site
almost ready to email my line manager with a Purchase Request form,
then discovered the prices - 3200 series @ $4000, and the 4200 series
@ $6000 - whew!

Admit it, they do look nice though And junOS - anyone familiar with
that? What's it like compared to Cisco IOS and Huawei switch OSes?

Guess they feel big enough to compete with Cisco in the switching
market (Cisco's bread and butter.) JunOS is great - nice modular
FreeBSD based OS. Huawei is about like most Chinese technology -
stolen, reverse engineered or bought - I wouldn't touch them with a
10' pole.
