Oh, and you can have up to 7 of <these> attached, unless you have a <those> attached, in which case you can have 5 <these> and one <those> or 4 <these> and 2 <those>. You know the configurator drill.. ;)
Sure, go for it. :)
Don't forget about "Well we're super sized network equipment vendor X so if you rip out all of your equipment from vendor Y, you can get discount + special discount." :-) David
