Hi Jules your Cisco holdings will benefit from IBM's PowerPC Its mutually beneficial as IBM can supply ASIC chips for under $30 to be used in multi-application routers : chips.ibm.com IBM embraces "partners" like Cisco and can supply them with low cost chips (under $30)containing a 32 bit RISC instruction set: arm.com For instance in the airline application , which will replace mostly Raytheon CRTs , IBM will be able to add voice/telephone capability with additional PowerPC chips. We used to compete against Cisco but they had a "better" IBM connection than we did and their incredible success was the result. Regards, Jim K.
