Regarding the article from ZDNet, I was shocked by the following:

"An eye-popping 85 percent of an ISP's networking gear must be supplied by Cisco to qualify for the program. To ensure compliance, Cisco does an extensive on-site audit of the service provider's network before granting admission."

If this is true, and I do not know whether it is true, such type of conduct might cause a federal investigation to determine if anti-trust laws are being violated. This is my lay opinion only.
