[c-nsp] Recommendations for 10GBase-Capable switch

[Robert Hayden]

I think there's a new 4900 series with 2 10GB and a bucket oF 1GE.

We've been complaining for a while about the 3750 with the 10GE port. 
We really wish the 16 ports were SFPs rather than copper.  At least it 
could then become a good aggregator for a building with a 10GE uplink.
