DJane, I am looking it up now, but I could have sworn I saw something where Cisco was backing ISLD.... I know they have been working together and stuff, but is Cisco invested in them or provide funding? I can't find the link...I'm normally good at the links and research but my mind strikes a blank!! Old age...LOL FM

Didn't see CISCO, but ISLD does have some major backing -- digisle.net Digital Island, a leading provider of global E-business solutions, announced today that it has received $50 million in private equity funding from a blue-chip investor group including Chase Capital Partners, Arbor Investors, L.L.C., and Merrill Lynch KECALP L.P. 1997 and its affiliates.
