          Well not really. I have once made a very opinionated post about a Cisco product that I purchased and was extremely let down by. It's on my blog from about 3 of 4 years ago.

          Search Cisco RV120.

            I'd personally go for the 350e w/SFF

              @DenisKelley I replied to them and said to do the 350e with SFF earlier. I'm more concerned with how much RAM and CPU they are sending with it. Am I to get a single CPU ML350e with 8GB RAM? or a super sweet 96GB+ Dual CPU 8 core+ system? Dual Powersupply? Charge me to ship it? It's still a big mystery at the moment.

                Even if it is only a single proc with 8 gigs.. you can add the others yourself down the road.
                I'm guessing they might only give you two, maybe 4 drives to setup either RAID 1 or RAID 10 for testing.

                  @Dashrender I've already told them I'm happy just to be given the opportunity. I don't really care at this point, I'll have something I can use for a home lab at the least which is something I don't have at the moment.

                    I want to +1 Bill's last post but the idea of adding to his reputation just because I like his post doesn't seem to make sense.

                      Better than getting ten points whether anyone likes it or not!

                        I never knew that until a few months ago. Seriously, always thought it was just from +1's and BA's / HP's / How-To's etc.

                          Yeah, the vast majority of the points are just from participating. You get 11 points for every thread you say "me too". Only takes a second. So the points actually encourage shallow, pointless interactions. BA points are so hard to get that they are a waste of time if points are the goal.

                            And, of course, there are reviews too....

                              Yes. 25 pts no matter what you say and half the time the product doesn't even exist.

                                @scottalanmiller I just checked, I hit 130k today. I just made a couple of new how-to's, still have a few more ideas I'm working on. But I find the lack of posters wanting to have discussions disappointing.
