Worst design decisions? (Cisco 4x00 rails)

Thu Sep 18 16:14:24 UTC 2003

My vote goes to the EMI gasket Cisco's BPX 8600 cards.  The gasket was
tacky enough to maintain a nice seal between cards ... enough to remove one
or two adjacent cards when you pulled the card out.

Special runner up nominee is whatever do-gooder decided it was a good idea
to have a cell phone beep incessantly when the battery level is low.  Did
this person never see the final scene of the original version of "The Fly"?
