  Those people who have SCP paid $2500 or more for them and had to do some
  heavy justifing to their bosses (Dept. heads, budget people etc). Now, 
  how do you go to your boss and ask him for $20,000 (cost of a CISCO
  router) to replace something thats only a few years old.

Wouldn't that be overkill?  Couldn't you replace an SCP with a Netblazer?
Or have I misunderstood what an SCP does?
