This person probably does not know much about ATM technology by saying FORE is way behind others. It's just the opposite, FORE is way ahead of others in ATM technology such as PNNI 1.0, Per VC queuing, ABR support etc. ASND and CSCo do not even come close if comparing technology. It's true that FORE needs some more clout in service provdier relationhsip and FORE is building up its SP infrastructure. FORE mkt to SPs has jumped to more than 20% from 0 in jsut 2 yrs. Based on ATM technology and performance comparison, FORE ASX4000 beats the hell out of CSCO BPX. Just look at SVC call rate performance, PNNI multi-peer group scalability, ABR, UNI 4.0 etc. FORE ASX4000 has much more ATM software capability than 550 which does not even have PNNI today. FORE is a good candidate for LU as LU will get a large enterrpise customer base from FORE. From marketing point of view, it makes sense as LU can get a strong foothold in the larger enterprise customer base.
