bgp, i would have replaced some VXRs with 3550.

This is not directly related to 3550 vs 2950 but the 3550 does not have
full router functionality you take for granted on a "proper router" !!!!
The 3550 does not support dot1q routing which is a major issue. The box can
only route on a physical port not a sub-interface. Although it can route on
a switched virtual interface. The only thing there is that you can't apply
QoS on a switched virtual interface !!!!

3550 is more of a router than a switch. it does all that a router can except
some bits like..it doesnt support bgp.

3550 supports per port qos at layer2 to layer 4 levels.. labs after nov 4th
might have this in
3550 also supports dscp along with precedence, with a map table and more
than one queue on inbound and outbound.

The 2950 does not support ISL trunking - only 802.1q trunking.

One difference I have seen: the 3550 seems to be the first of the IOS
switches to support PAgP. That is, the first that will actually negotiate
trunking.
