Yes, thanks - I've seen that.  What I want to know is
 a) what's the current base platform (the Redbook talks about
the Axx and Bxx series, but not the current Cxx)?
 b) have folks bought them and what do they think?
and
 b) is it worth it, or should I just continue to build ADSM
servers myself?  It probably really comes down to the licensing -
the statement was made (by some marketing folks, so...) that you
don't have to buy per-client licenses with an NSM - that might be
the deciding factor.
