Guinness World Records Recognize Cisco
 The Guiness Book of World Records has officially recognized Cisco's CRS-1 router as the world's highest capacity router. (Who knew they had a category for that??)
The CRS-1 does 92 terabits, or 92 trillion bits per second. True, but other records we found in this Reuters piece include: "Ashrita Furman balanced 75 20-ounce beer glasses on his chin for 10.6 seconds in his New York City backyard in 2001; the residents of Bethel, Maine, and surrounding towns over 14 days in 1999 built a snowman measuring 113 feet, 7-1/2 inches; and V Jeyaraman of India in 1988 clapped continuously for 58 hours and 9 minutes." Top that Cisco!
