Not to be rude but there are alot of people doing routing with multiple VRF's in the 6500, with sup720 and sup2T etc it's actually quite nice as a router. I find it's much more common then the ASR's in enterprise networks that i've been working in.
I agree. The c6500 is a router with switching functions. It does many things like MPLS, VRFs, OSPF, BGP and, well, routing. Classifying it as a switch is a mistake. It might once have been the idea at Cisco but it never worked. The gap between the 6500 and the 7600 is closing and treating one as a switch and the other as a router doesn't make sense anymore.
