I HOPE THIS IS THE RIGHT FORUM FOR THIS AS THERE WAS NO NETWROK FORUM. If there is a better one please move it.

I wanted to see if anyone else here is using a Extreme Networks BlackDiamond 6808 for there routing and and switching and how it has worked out for them, we are also running BGP with it:

We installed one 2 weeks ago and I have to say so far its been 100x better and faster then cisco and much easier to work with. I am thinking about dropping all of our cisco stuff to go with all extreme networks in every rack.
 
It looks promising but I would wait a little more than 2 weeks to change everything from Cisco. Cisco has always been known for quality and support. I myself will definetly be purchasing one of these bad boys to test out against the cisco. Thanks for the link :).
