Good question.  We aren't a 4500 shop si I have no practical experience 
with then, but a 4500 with 2 * 48 port gig rj45 blades, a sup2+ and 
dual power would be around $15k less than the 6500 sup32 option (at 
aussie list price again).  So as a layer 2 only platform I take it that 
an S2+ would be ok?  What's the EOS / EOL expectations?  Anyone who 
uses these in anger care to comment?
