Thanks Travis-
I've looked at those units many times, but I've also read reports of
random lockups and reboots with them and the x86 version of routerOS.
Have you had any issues with them and if so, what version have you found
to be the most stable?

These are the best little X86 based boxes you can buy (for the money).
We have some we are pushing over 100Mbps and the CPU is less than 10%:

Hi guys,
I lost my "beloved" RB1000 the other day due to fan failure and it's
time to start considering what I should replace it with (and what to
stock a spare of).
This will be a router for my company (not a WISP). Our internet feed
is 50Mb and on average, I would say there is no more than 25-30Mbit
being pushed through the unit, however I did notice a huge
performance hit when I plopped in my temporary RB750 to get my
internet connection back up and running. I don't run much in the way
of simple queues other than Butch's QoS script. I have a handful of
firewall rules dictating which subnets can talk to who. The router
also has an EoIP tunnel to another router for failover and acts as a
PPTP VPN server.
I'm looking for something that will offer similar performance to what
my RB1000 provided me. Port count isn't critical, but I'd like at
least 3 and they have to be gigabit. I'm not overly concerned about
rackmount or not as I have a shelf I could set the unit on. By far
the most critical piece though has to be stability - both in the
platform itself and ethernet performance.
So far, I've been looking at the RB450G, the RB1200 and the RB800.
I've looked at a few of the x86 boards, but I believe these might be
overkill for my particular application.
What do you guys think?
