glenn, I made these large purchases before.
the uunet purchase indicates that they will be purchasing them by the end of 1997.
I would negoiate the price and open po's for all the equipment with dates of delivery.
but, I would get free reschedule rights on any po's as long as it was 30 days before the duedate. There is a std telecom contract and it's speciifes that reschedules can happen w/i a certain period.
I would arrrange all po's on the books and then manage delivery
when I needed it.
the announcement said over and over again that the po's would be
in 4q 97.
I also think that no news release happens til the contract is signed but I don't think po's are in the system.
If that gets in the backlog for 3q then it happens via an accural.
I feel good about them rushing the contract to announce during this let down.
