I can only comment on the EX8208 - running okayish so far. Some cosmetic
problems like propagating the license information to the standby RE,
nothing major. The chassis design is braindead though - it's got
side-to-side cooling, and the horizontally aligned DPCs do not (for
whatever arcane reason) use the current M-series retention knobs but the
old M5/M10-style latches, which in a dense design like this mean you
have lots of trouble plugging or unplugging the first & last 8-10 ports
on each DPC.

Kind regards,

Felix
