>>I find it interesting/coincidental that 3COM releases Navy certification of it's ATM equipment right after Sprint says it will have a new phone system based on Cisco's ATM. It was this news that I was thoroughly impressed with today.Was anybody else impressed with this news?<< ABSOLUTELY!!! 1) Billion dollar contract 2) "received certification for all eight products it submitted, surpassing the number of products certified by any other vendor" It's products are just as good as anybody's. Extremely high quality to pass Naval approval/certification. The contract process must have been brutal. 3) Ability to handle a huge project from end-to-end. 4) Good rapport with the Government. Most likely, there will be lots of other major contracts with the Gov't. 5) Anotherwords, it proves to the whole world that it's just as good at Networking as anybody else, if not better. They can provice THE FULL SOLUTION at a reasonable price. I remember this contract with the Navy from a while ago. They had gotten through the early rounds of the proposal process and were one of the main companies weeded out. (In fact, I may have even mentioned it...) It's just too bad we have to be mired in this modem horsemanure for a while. Either way, COMS's long term product will win out. That's what I'm betting my $$ on. At the moment, the price is a steal. If I could, I'd sell my house,etc. to round up more cash!!! joe
