i hope the two companies continue with their partnerships and no merger/buyout. when i view recent mergers asnd/cscc, coms/usrx, the digestive process seems to initially spit out stockholders and chew up the stock price.

coms continues to be mired in the muck of usrx and i would hope they learn a lesson about acquiring a company so large and the problems of integrating such a purchase.

your comments about competing with csco is very perceptive, but two weak companies combining, i do not believe would allow for them to effectively compete. instead the merger would hurt development as the companies merged cultures and products and may actually have the combined company lose market share to csco.
