Mmmh. They haven't done a BU split in a long time. Cisco's track
record suggests that that's what they like to do to their "flagship" -
wreck it due to politics, weird IOS support, and broken promises...
Regarding weird IOS support, I think a 15.0<somefunnyletters> for
6500-only is due...

If I were a competitor, my worst nightmare might be "Cisco gets their
operating system act together, and delivers a stable, modular, cross-
platform OS *for all their existing product lines*".
(Or a fixed-config switch with a useful amount of buffers).
But I see their competitors sleeping fairly well.
