I have to make a decision between purchasing a Kinetics 
FastPath or a Cayman GatorBox.  

I've read the literature.
I've 'listened' to the various discussions on the 'NET'.
It seems that the two products are running 'neck-in-neck'.
When some pricing changes (in the near future) take effect,
they will even cost the same.

I don't need NFS for now (I think I'll wait until MacNFS from Apple appears).
I'm not sure if I need KIP/CAP at this time either.

So, Does anyone have a summary of the pros and/or cons of the two products?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
