Re: VIRL

It was this month, but it was pushed back 3 months, so now April. I'm not sure
that everyone receives embedded attachments, but bow is the pricing estimate I
took at Cisco Live 2013. $2k for workstation and $20k for VM server. The cloud
version that Yuri mentioned is only $100-$500/month.
