I'm more than interested in developing a much cheaper, hardware
forwarding router..
I think there is a lot of room for innovation - especially at the
target market in this thread.
If anyone wants to work with me on this, just let me know!
I've got a tonne of ideas and a bit of free time..

I'm not saying the problems are the same, but I am saying that a
backplane making cooling hard is not a good excuse, especially when
the small empty chassis costs $10K+.
And, not to mention that some vendors do it sometimes.

(As opposed to Policing) is very useful. Also, Front to back
cooling is optimal in a Datacenter and often not available.
