Zoltan, Interestingly enough, some of these engineers are actually putting technology ahead of cold hard cash. there s a group of guys looking outside of CSCO right now because they are bored. They have a boatload of equity on the table, but are also looking for the start-ups. LU, NT and CSCO are all having this problem in MA, all for different reasons. LU has the technology but the share price is down, CSCO has the share price but the technology in the northeast is weak and NT has the share price and routing technology but no shares....

The former AT&T Corp. subsidiary enjoys a size advantage over Nortel Networks Corp. and its other fellow telecom suppliers, and towers over hot start-ups like Cisco Systems Inc.

Hot start-up???!!!

:O)

PS also from the above link:

As Nortel closes the market-cap gap between itself and Cisco (Nortel is worth some $200-billion US, and Cisco about $360-billion), a megamerger between the two is not inconceivable.
