Though if you've kept up with the latest IOS developments, cisco is finally differentiating the platforms we've assumed for years were only different in angle and paint. 6500's won't get to run the newest 7600 code. I think Cisco is coming to their senses. SXH has *most* of SRB features, while (hopefully) more stable.

At this point, imho, the rsp720 is getting the short end of the stick, because it is only limited to SRB+, while you have a choice of SX* and SRB on the sup720. But I think, imho, this discussion belongs to cisco-nsp more than to nanog-l. -alex [not speaking as mlc blah blah]
