Avi,
Happy user ?? Count me in....
For example - I look to you as an industry pundit or leader on BGP stuff
in my endeavor to learn BGP. I do the same with Optigold and Shawn Hogan

We know more about our clients now than we ever have.
Optigold ....feature rich, support rich and a real life saver.
Howz that for an endorsement!
