There isn't much difference in price and they run the same software 
images. However, in my personal opinion, you should buy the XMR. It 
will hold twice the number of routes and although we are at over 250k 
Internet routes today and the MLX will hold 512k (approx dependent on 
how you slice up MPLS/IPv4/IPv6) routes and the XMR will hold approx 
1 million routes, the XMR will be usable for a longer time. This is 
due to a larger CAM on all line cards and more RAM in the management 
modules. You cannot upgrade an MLX to be an XMR. We have the XMRs and 
have been very happy with them. We evaluated an MLX box in the 
beginning, but bought the XMR.
