Some of the worst problems we experienced:

 - switch suddenly stopping to switch any traffic, requiring a power cylce
   (we had the device RMAed, but the second one did it as well).  TAC never
   found the reason.

 - when you applied ACLs to the GE ports, and the ACL exceeded a certain
   length and could not fit to the TCAM anymore, the switch *SILENTLY* 
   removes the ACL from the interface (it prints a warning to CONSOLE,
   but not to vty, syslog, or anywhere else where you might actually
   notice).  TAC claimed "this cannot be changed".
