Subject: Re: Lab Equipment for CCIE R&S Pre ENOUGH ALREADY

The 3550s are END OF LIFE (EOL), hence the reason they are being REPLACED
and REMOVED. I do live in Vegas, and if anyone wants to put up a wager on
this, I'll be more than happy to take their bet (although I'm not really a
casino type guy...cause I know the odds!). I'll setup a website and you can
pay with paypal! All proceeds will go towards groupstudy for wasting paul's
bandwidth with this continued discussion.

thanks,
