GW,

I went back to look at the press release history for both ASND and AOL and unfortunately the news is too old. I can't find the AOL failure archived anywhere. I did note that Businesswire removed a couple of late summer ASND releases but I'm not sure what they were about. So, given that I can not corroborate my statement I'll back off - even though this is what I remember.

Nonetheless the attitude in here that ASND's products never fail and that Cisco's do and this is equally irritating to those of us that are invested in both companies. I'm tired of hearing about the AT&T issue. AND, being an ASND investor I wouldn't be so quick to jump on CSCO. At some point down the road ASND will have a failure - there is just no way around it and when it does I'll support ASND on the CSCO thread with the same vigor I support Cisco here. That of course assumes that ASND handles the failure in a professional manner as Cisco did.
