Vinny vinny vinny... You seem to be allergic to the idea of doing any
of own research and it would not surprise me in the slightest to see
your next series of questions go something along the lines of:

1. So, what should I do?  Please send me a detailed site plan with
   all cost estimates attached.

2. Can someone come over here and do all this for me while I vacation in
   the Carribean? :-)

My suggestions:

1. Do a net search for Emerging Technologies (or see FreeBSD's commercial
   entries off the home page) and get their contact information.  Say to the
   nice person who answers:  "Uh, can you give me your prices?"

2. Do a net search for SDL communications and do the same.

3. Repeat step 2 for Cisco.

Tada!  You've now got price information and probably a stack of FAX'd
technical data if you also gave the nice sales critters your FAX
number and requested data.

Requests for empirical data are one thing, but questions about things
you're more than capable of answering for yourself strike me as a
waste of everyone's time.

Thanks!
