TP - NT sold their Juniper shares at the IPO. They may have felt there was a conflict of interest with them being active with Avici and developing the Versalar and they probably needed the money. Also, I think they were more interested in having a competitor to Cisco than they were in making a profit on the investment. I am not ready to say they made a mistake although they clearly would have made a lot of money by holding.

Lol..just a small error..well at least they retained 16%..or they might be in some dishearting pain right about now.

AVCI has has a nice run, but on a valuation basis this is just getting interesting..... I love the beginings of these stories...
