And there is NO WAY a NETSERVER based chassis is worth $4K. Christ, they were only $10K NEW.
Unfortunatly, bells and whistles is what fuels the market. Big places want to see those features (telcos, etc) so you have to be working on them to stay competitive, or else you blink, and your behind. FWIW, Netserver chassis were $30k+..................they only dropped to $10k after being out for a while, and towards the end.

First, why are you discussing Patton on this list?
Second, I don't respect or purchase from companies that use misdirection in their advertising or market position. The Patton doesn't do 30 or 60 channels, vs 3Coms 'limit' of 48. I don't care what it will do in Europe, and I hate people who use apples and oranges comparisons.
Third, there is absolutely no mention of MLPPP, or even more critical to those who are growing, Multi-chassis MLPPP. You certainly won't be able to minimize redundant D channel usage in large aggregations of dialup lines.
Fourth, I'm supposed to purchase a mission critical piece of equipment from someone who built modem sharing devices up until last year?

It's old, unsupported, dosen't do mlppp, has routing problems, an underpowered CPU, not enough RAM, slow management card.
For the cost of an old, outdate 2059, you can get the same ports (48) for slightly more out of patton.
How many ISP's leased 2059's with FMV cause we KNEW they were going to be discontinued... yet resellers are jacking the price up to 4500 on these 486 based RASes?
I hate when businesses screw themselved... knowingly.

Obviously. So we're going to get 24 or 23 ports with the patton. And we're comparing that to a 48 port TC. Yeah, it's old, unsupported, but the price isn't REALLY that bad. :)

How many ports on a Patton 2810? I see info at http://www.patton.com about the 2800, with UP TO 30 ports (E1 I assume).
