Hello,
I hate to ask this question but I feel that you guys have a good feel for what's reasonable for these devices given your professional backgrounds. I just won an item on ebay for the above price and I would like to hear your opinions regarding the amount to be paid out.
Thanks much!

Can you list these routers in order of retail price? I don't need to know the price, just the order from least to most expensive (Although an estimate won't hurt :) )
Thanks guys.

Simply put, I'm on a budget and would like to make the best purchase for the price. Budget runs from $100 to max $140. What is a good setup to look for in this price range keeping in mind possible use for future studies to obtain advanced certifications such as CCNP. Pardon the several messages...
How's this one?
Cisco 2501
3000 Software IGS-IN-L Version 11.1 (10)
20 MB DRAM
8 MB Flash
$137 (Shipping included)
I don't like the fact that it comes with 11.1, but it has 20mb ram.
Which is more reasonable or logical to upgrade? Ram, flash or IOS?

I truly appreciate your help Mike. I do understand the different roles ram and flash play, I guess I'm not positive if the difference in performance between 8 and 16 ram is substancial enough to warrant the higher ram.
If the router already has 12.0 IOS, I don't believe I would need to mess...
Thanks for the swift response. To be honest, I have already completed the CCNA exam. After a 6 month hiatus, I would like to continue my studies in order to refine my knowledge and possibly pursue the CCNP in the future. (Although at present my time is being consumed by studying for Microsoft...
Hello,
I'm in the process of purchasing an additional router for my lab for practice purposes. The router is a Cisco 2501 with 12.0 IOS, 8mb flash and 4mb dram. Is this setup adequate given the price and situation? The purchase price is $95.
I know the ideal setup is 12 IOS and 16/16. What...
Also, with a 2 machine setup, which areas would pose major difficulties to duplicate. I know AD replication to be one of these areas. What else can I expect?
You've been very helpful, I appreciate your efforts.

For further clarification, in your case with your 4 year experience, it has allowed you to develop a greater perspective of the OS, although in a production environment, it still goes a long way towards your developement and understanding which is what I'm trying to achieve for the most part...
I appreciate your response. I followed the same route with purchasing routers and catalyst switches for the CCNA. A very good experience overall [afro2]
Anyhow, I totally understand what you mean. However, I also feel you may have misunderstood me which is understandable. What I really meant to...
Thanks for the re-assurance Nzarth. Let me ask you a question. How long have you been in the field and working with the Win2k OS? While using 2 machines do you feel that you now have a full grasp and can command or administer the system adequately?
I will definately start out with my current...
