Does anyone else have any 6500's that have the Fabric Enabled blades in them, and are running Native IOS on their supervisor II's?

I do.. I've had it up and running for about a month now but it's only going into production today.

I haven't played much with the fabric stuff yet but there are a few caveats so be careful. For example, adding a non-fabric enabled (classic) line card into the chassis will drop the performance back to 15Mpps, rather than the 30Mpps that is possible with the Sup2 and all fabric enabled line cards.

Once you start mixing classic and fabric enabled line cards it becomes very grey and I've never really got to the bottom of it.
