Unq and Thread:
Interesting news, IMO:

cbs.marketwatch.com

Lucent Technologies is expected to announce Tuesday that it will buy California-based International Network Services, according to the Wall Street Journal.

Lucent will acquire the computer networking consulting firm in a deal valued at $3.7 billion, said the Journal report, citing unnamed sources familiar with the matter.....According to Hoover's Online, networking equipment giant Cisco has a minority stake in International Network Services.

Wow, these consulting firms are getting all the offers these days, aren't they? Interesting that LU is paying nearly 4 times the price CSCO just paid for their stake.

Eagerly anticipating CSCO's $.21,
Justin

Uncle Frank: I'm a practitioner of the dark arts (TA), and came to the same conclusion you did. I should have spared myself the expense of the astrolabe, sextant, cauldron, etc.
