I'm using NAS for stabilty, reliabilty, easy of use and, performance in that order. Does anyone beat NetApp on these issues?

We demo'd bluearc and found it to be... how should I say, worthless as ____ on a boarhog (for all you Southern Bells out there). Blue Arc failed miserably in our environment and we found the sales people to be liars about the ability of the product. (Sorry, was that my outside voice?)
Am I a NetApp bigot... yup, but only for good reason. C-
