I'm test-marketing a new product under the company "Esotec CSUs" the
trick is small smoke generators in every product.  It may fill your NOC
with smoke, possibly triggering the Halon (or worse) system, but we've
all gotta live with the little things.

You can really feel the difference in responce and crosstalk when you
click on a web page or do a traceroute.

We feel they are indeed worth the extra $1,000 each (and that includes a
free NOC staffer respirator! :)
