Sure Phil; Here is the post you have questioned. To: CR Lum (701 ) From: Glenn McDougall Tuesday, Nov 10 1998 7:29AM ET Reply # of 704 If your looking for a ottawa company to buy mitel it could be the one just down the road....Newbridge. They have tundra that could be blended in with the semi side and according to Merrill Lynch in a report done 23 October 1998 they stated..."we believe the company (Newbridge) may start to move more towards the buy vs. build option that it has used with its affiliate strategy". Of a further note around the time of the UB mess Newbridge had kicked the tires at Mitel. In no way am I suggesting this is anywhere close to a done deal now but It could make life interesting and all things being equal Terry would have his old company back. This is where he made his name and just look at Newbridge in Wales to see what roots means to this man. I know that the first part of Kirk Mandey's watch as CEO had been rough but he is up for the job and would be another jewel in the Newbridge crown. Regards Glenn ********************************************************************* This was in response to posts (700&701) on the Mitel thread suggesting that Nortel was looking at taking out Mitel (in my opinion it did not add up). I further quoted a report from Merrill Lynch on Newbridge saying that the company is looking at buy vs. build as a growth strategy. I have no idea what you refer to with the Ascend/Mitel fantasy however perhaps a little less liquid might be in order.
