It is a great box. But I need BGP. I notice Cisco does not support 7505 with Software Advisor but does 7507 whats the deal with that ?

Yes. I've been looking at it and a 7505 with a 3550 behind it seems
the
way to go for our type of operation. As a cost cutting alternative - has anyone played with the 2900 XL series using sub interfaces to turn them into virtual router ports ?
or
vlan groups ? Is it better to just buy a 3550 ?
If you're only doing basic Ethernet-Ethernet routing, and don't need a full routing table, it's quite possible that the 3550 will perform better than either the 6000/Sup1A or the 7505. You might also consider a 3750, which handles a large number of SVIs better than the 3550. (Yes, I'm seriously suggesting using the 3550 or 3750 alone.)
