	I'd be very curious to know more about the areas in which you 
found the Infoblox appliances were inferior.  Cricket Liu (one of the 
co-authors of the book _DNS and BIND_) is a senior VP at the company, 
and I'm sure that he is working closely with the team to make sure 
that they have the best possible product.  I'm confident that any 
constructive criticism you could give to them would be appreciated.

	On the pure software side of the house, the best products I've 
seen are from Nominum.
