>> NT is not going to spend $8 billion US if they thought there was no way to develop an all-optics network from transmission to routing within the next year or two! Are you suggesting that NT's multi-billion financial commitment is a guarantee of success? If so, your logic is terminally flawed. Corporations can lose their gambles just as readily as individual investors. Ask the folks at Motorola who burned billions in Irridium. BTW, they have a massive in-house R&D program, just like NT. >> To think that CSCO could simply wait and jump in once the optics networks are being built is a pretty amateurish statement at best... To think that you actually believe your shallow, low-tech mastery of networking buzz words means jack-sh*t is simply amazing. uf
