which is, i believe, the point of the publicity stunt.  unfortunately,
it does not help with us needing 100GE and more in the pop where this
stuff aggregates.  and, for those who remember when peter did the
similar stunt to make the POS point, let's hope cisco does not try to
sell us a merlin-like hack to deal with it until the ieee gets off its butt.
