Cisco Systems to Acquire Selsius Systems, Inc.

I would feel better if Cisco would develop more internally. I know that R&D expense is worth avoiding but aquisitions can often result in much of the best staff from the aquired company leaving. If one of the aquired products has trouble and the expertise is not there to solve it it makes the whole company look bad. To my mind each new purchase is a gamble, and the odds are that some of these will backfire.

Other than that I have no particular information as to the suitability of this particular transaction.
