Can't download shapes - Visio2003 pro SP1?

[boe]

I used to be able to download shapes with the previous version of Visio. MS
has updated their web page and I can't seem to find the shapes any more by
browsing the web page.
http://www.microsoft.com/office/visio/networkcenter/patch.mspx
seems to be for the previous version of visio.

I want several poweredge servers and some other things that used to be on
their web page.

Thanks

MS no longer supports that functionality (lost it when the dropped support
for VENT in 2002). Users now must either find free versions of what they
want (some vendor sites support this, or you can start over at John
Marshall's site for pointers www.mvps.org/visio) or you can purchase them
from companies like Altima. MS has a limited number of them in a purchasable
(USD $200) add on at

Thanks - dang - I wish I had kept myself informed - I would have downloaded
tons of shapes while I could.

If you are looking for Dell Poweredge shapes, just go to Dells web site.
They keep their free collection reasonably up to date. The link is on our
"links page" below,

Thanks. I wonder why dell has such a small selection of their products.

I was also hoping to get some cisco, sonicwall, netgear, Compaq, Nortel
equipment.

the cisco stuff is on the cisco site, rumor has it that Nortel can make some
of theirs available as well.
