[Charles Sprickman]

Anyone?  I’d even be happy with just a part # on software-only or software+limited phone support.

Thanks!

Then it occurred to me that a very cisco-like move when competitors start offering support would be to drop the software-only option, forcing customers that want legit software back to Cisco.  Am I wrong?  Specifically, looking for software-only for ASR-1002X (and relevant to that other thread going on, yes 16GB, yes even with dual IOS running have room for multiple v4/v6 bgp feeds).
