Hmmmm... Well, you know I can't help but laugh. You did it to yourself this time Mizzou.

First you have these mysterious 105's that TLC has made clear don't exist.

Second you said over and over that Cisco would miss revenues - WRONG! They smooshed them while beating by a penny. Cisco continues to dominate their markets.

Third, and this is the very thing I've been waiting for (please pass this one to BR)...a large service provider network using Lu/Asnd equipment had serious outages (see the story on MCI). As I pointed out when T had their outages that every network will fail at some point and that it was merely a matter of time before a Lu/Asnd customer had an outage as well. The issue then becomes how does the company responsible for the outage deal with the situation. As Justin pointed out Cisco charted a jet a flew out new equipment immediately...I hope LU does the same or at least offers to correct this situation rather than deny as Mory would do. In the end I hope that this puts to rest the bickering I hear from you and BR about the T outage. So much for BR's position that there redundancy built into LU's products will keep thier networks from failing. Everything fails... at some point.... Even jets fall out of the air... sometimes. There is no such thing as 100% up time. Everyone strives for 5 9's.... leaving a .001% chance of a failure.... Looks like LU's got one here.

Well., with Cisco up $2 1/4 in after market this is shaping up to be one heck of good day. :) I really do wish you had those 105's. ::::))))
