When corporations buy other corporations they approach it in the same way you would to buy a stock. So in that sense you are a corporation.

That is if one is running the calculations to see if the return on investment is worth the price tag for the engineering talent, employees, physical plant and customer base. (Like all those nifty little purchases Cisco did....) It was reported that talks were made earlier in the year between Juniper and Redback, but they walked away from the talks at the time.

RBAK has no currency as far as striking a consolidating deal. That's out of the question and not even on this planet.

And your company does?

You say you have a pretty good idea what the company does. Does that include the idea that what they have is no longer that which is desired? Smartedge is guaranteed to disappear. Whatever has been done in software can be done faster and better in hardware.

Guaranteed to disappear?
