No need. I somewhat agree with Mr. Fun's assessment. I do think however that Cisco has been pushing the POS story for a while which is why they turned off development on the TGX last June. I still think Cisco see's a world with all IP edges and Sonet framed, optical transport. Benefits to Cisco is that they fend off startup like Extreme and Juniper, and perhaps lessen the impact of the Nexabit acquisition....of course assuming the dogs will eat the dog food. In the end there will be any number of alternatives...as there always has been. OG
