Thanks for providing the soapbox ;-).  Extreme model worked for us on 
RE3.0 fine, except that its performance is too good.  Juniper RE CPU 
gets overloaded when writing an image on it and it drops BGP sessions 
etc. This is not a bug according to JTAC. Be aware if you ever need to 
do CF flashing on live equipment :P
