Thanks John, I will have to market now 8mb flash memory, any idea how much do they cost?? About selling all of them and getting 2501's , I will increase the number of routers and maybe I can have 2 of them... I am getting more stuffs like the 7000 series ...I just have to test all the boards and market them..I don;t think it is a good idea to have them installed in a lab.. As far as Switch goes which is the best cost/benefit to have some of them..
