Depends on what you want to do. If you just want to forward the packets 
then 6500/7600 is a good deal, if you want to do something intelligent 
with them (shape them, QoS etc), then it starts to make less sense 
(because the LCs to do this are expensive).

Also note that the SUP32 won't take a full BGP table, so you have to get 
the 720-XL ones.
