Cakebread? Anyway, I think that anyone that goes up against Cisco in a market they already dominate, such as routers, will be at best in second place. But if the market turns around, there is money to made in second place. Further, I think the marketplace will always want some alternative to Cisco, and will include JNPR as a vendor just to help keep CSCO pricing under some check. CSCO already has tremendous pricing power, and if JNPR folds then the vendors have no leverage. I do not see all CSCO competition folding in the markets they dominate for the reason I stated. Vendors will support at least one competitor as long as it does not cost them too much in performance, service, reliability and scalability. Jeff
