Erm no, it looks like the bundle you're referring to consists of an M7i 
with a built-in GE port (not for management, that's done via a 100 Mbps 
port) and a single PIC with 4 GE ports: PE-4GE-TYPE1-SFP-IQ2. Again: this 
is a *single* PIC with *four* GE ports, which means that there is 
oversubscription. See http://www.juniper.net/products/modules/100163.pdf

It also means that your M7i will still have 3 PIC slots left for
expansion.

This bundle is certainly NOT an M7i with a GE port built in and four
regular, 1-port GE PICS, I'm afraid.
