What is pathetic in reading these CSCO posts is their utter lack of how the big Carriers like BT make their buying decision. Companies like AT&T and BT do not simply go out and decide on different vendors each month. We are talking about PARTNERSHIP, not a Box supplier. Building highly scaleable, 99.99999% public grade network is not something a box vendor learns to do over a year period. If you don't understand that, you don't understand anything about Carrier space --- and should not be investing in this field. ALA is a hell of a lot more competitor to NT than CSCO is or will be for the forseeable future (measured in years). Kapish?
