We have set up national frame networks based on their products with 100% success. The QC/bug-free motherboard/card/chassis/powersupply issue is always an issue. It is our experience, however, that these problems are easily overcome. The PC hardware can be completely "hardened" to full industrial spec. exceeding typical router MTBFs. It is also our experience that our router/network downtime is far less then our carrier's and their is no ambiguity in routing/bandwidth issues.
