That's exactly what we did!

It has it's pro's and con's but in our case it was quite a bit less
expensive.

Onderwerp: [foxboro] FSIM as a replacement for the AW70X

Does any end user have experience in using FSIM as a replacement for a
AW70X? Given the pricing I have received for FSIM, although it may be a more
functional replacement, it doesn't seem like a practical one. It seems like
it would be cheaper to purchase a AW, switches and a CP270 and have the
spares to boot. I could probably also buy a car to drive it around. Perhaps
I didn't use the right verbiage when I requested the quote?
I had an opportunity to use FSIM a few years back. I liked it, but it is a
lot more than what I currently need for simple off-line training and
development (and priced accordingly).

It seems like the loss of the AW70x at v 8.x is a big one to the user
community, another backwards step?

Let me know if someone has had a different experience.
