Stay away from the OSPF. 9 out of 10 engineers agree: If you use Juniper,
use ISIS. Or become very good at troubleshooting OSPF.

        Hello All ,  Replying off list would be best & I can summarize if
        anyone has interest .  Have my eye's on acquiring a couple of
        their larger units .  I Just need some feedback from -real- users .

I have worked for two very large providers with juniper equipment. Like
all equipment, they have their flaws but they are so much 
better than the
next closes vendor that its not even funny.

Much better response from engineers, much better code, much 
higher density
per rack, and their line cards actually can do oc192
