Ahem. I think the _correct_ answer is to buy a 1751, which comes with
128mb of RAM, 32mb of flash, and a real CPU. Why do people insist on
buying dinosaurs? I know the PLM for that space, and believe me, Cisco
can't understand why people insist on continuing to order routers that are
nearly a _decade old_. I mean, come on, folks, these are _68030s_. If
you had a monitor and a keyboard on something that old, I don't think
you'd be calling it "trusty", I think you'd have thrown it out the window
in frustration, oh, say, six or seven years ago.

Stop beating a dead horse and let Cisco move on. How can people
complain that they're not able to beat Juniper on modern stuff, and then
simultaneously whine that they're not adequately supporting legacy crap
from the _previous century_?
