I just put in the order for my 5 new core border routers, capable of pushing
about 10Gig. Cost me $1500 each. You gotta love Linux and SuperMicro. :-)

We're a linux house except for the edge. While cisco may be
expensive, you measure uptime in years. And a 7609-S can shuck a lot
of bandwidth intelligently (as can linux).

Vyatta.com (free) and also www.PFSense.org (free) both have support options.
We shed our Cisco VAX 7200 - and have never looked back.
Cisco are expensive - think about it.
A power PC 300mhz processor - $1K for 512mb of ram for some units...
vs.
$2K for an 8 Core Xeon system running 2.6Ghz
