I was about to suggest that, but the 7500 series is WAY deeper than
the 6500s (like "80-85 cm" vs. "50 cm").
I'd still go for Aristas instead of Nexus.
Spent two hours on the phone with Cisco TAC today, and 3 hours with
Arista TAC yesterday.
Arista case was open 5 days and is now already in engineering.
Cisco case is open 8 months and TAC is still running in circles.
No vendor is perfect, but Cisco is no longer even aiming for goodness.
