Csco's purchase price, which essentially ignores normal valuation metrics

longs on JNPR shouldn't make such comments. <vbg>

As for the acquisition, I think what it says is that Cisco believes that IP is an edge technology and due to overhead and complexity it is not the best technology for the core... they are going optics (POS). If it is optics and not IP and not ATM than JNPR's core routing strategy may be squeezed.

JNPR --

I don't think CSCO will pay that price to ANY company...

I don't see the need for CSCO to buy JNPR, do you?
