If ASND was taking market share away from Cisco why in the world would they have sold to LU?

To greatly accelerate stealing your market share. Not a matter of if, just when. And they just assume bury you now and get it over with than put up with more JC BS. ASND beat you when they were nothing, what makes you think CSCO could beat them now???????????????????

the difference is that Cisco can charge for their equipment and expertise...

Amen, brother. They wrote the book on billing. And billing. And billing... Yes OG, in your short sightedness you espouse the theory that the bottom line is all important. Project this theory out five years and CSCO will sell one switch a year for 2 billion and still have bragging rights. Good point OG!!! I wonder why the ASND board never considered this. Sheesh...

Perhaps that is why CSCO is commanding and holding a higher PE.

Perhaps CSCO is a moron magnet.
