<<LU has already decided not to buy ASND. As we all know, Livingston has complete product overlap with ASND's RAC equipment. Yurie now give them an ATM concentrator, which I don't think ASND has (or wants???).>>

The SA line which came from the Sahara acquisition, by Cascade who was bought by Ascend, competes directly with the Yurie line of ATM Access Concentrators. I believe in the CC Ascend said these sales were improving.

Separate but related thought: Remember from H&Q conference, Mory said he could not understand why Lucent bought Yurie, and Michael pointed out that it gives this industry higher price takeover values. If Bay is in play I wonder what value they might give it? Anybody watch the banks or brokerage houses trade up in value because the other guy just got bought?
