And *that* very much shows how much lack of understanding there is in
product development.  There is not so much difference between "campus",
"d/c" and "service provider" anymore - and the arbitrary product
differenciation ("no, you can't have *that* feature which would make
perfect sense to you, because that's only available on the other boxes
[which, incidentially, lack 5 features that you need]") is really 
alienating customers.

Join forces, build a sane product with a sane OS (which is not "classic
monolithic IOS" and not "classic monolithic IOS on top of linux" either),
and use all the development resources for that, instead of splitting 
sparse resources on building 3-5 competing platforms, each of them lacking 
something important the others already have.
