the big difference is that for me, we had a problem come up wth connecting
some users remotely. we were able to take an extra machine we had, throw
the CSG on there and get them connected. If the answer had been buying the
CAG, it never would have happened. It also would have taken too much time
to procure and get installed into our network.
I hope the CSG sticks around for a long time.
