I have similar views.

My overall take on Asnd is sort like this. They are in the fastest
growing part of the networking business, but that sector (bulk
high speed net connectivity for ISP's, and WAN ATM (Cascade) is
slowing in relative speed.

Both Asnd and Cascade have been one trick ponys, doing very popular
tricks. But the networking industry is subject to continuing high
speed revolutions. Csco, and to a lesser extent (but also) Coms
have shown themselves able to remake themselves again and again,
by absorbing and incorporating revolutionaris early on.

Asnd has its big merger of equals, but hasn't really shown it can
handle revolutions and come out ahead yet. Maybe yes, maybe no.

What do you think?

Regards....
