Transparent caches work really well when there's enough capacity there and the hardware and software are behaving themselves. How often do you hear of browsing probs in Winnersh for example?

Along with an upgrade of network hardware it makes sense to get some extra proxy power in there. Can't see them going anywhere the investment in them has just been too large, and when they work they do their job really well - notice how many less complaints of slow browsing there have been since the last round of webcache upgrades?
