Yeah, I saw that. Either a damn fool or one hell of a gambler to put one's entire portfolio into one stock, particularly a tech stock, particularly a networker, particularly Ascend.

"I learned that AT&T WorldNet is evaluating ASND's GX 550 to expand its all ATM backbone capacity to OC-12 and OC-48 using ASND's Navis network management SW. In addition to evaluating GX 550 for core switching, AT&T also evaluates the CBX 500 as an ATM edge switch as well...If ASND wins this contract potentially worth several hundreds of million dollars plus training, upgrade, and maintenence, there will be a significant upside suprise to FY98.

The GX 550 Core ATM Switch provides the capacity of a core switch with
the intelligence of an edge switch, with first to market OC48/STM-16 trunking capability.

ATM core switching
OC3/STM-1 - OC12/STM-4
25-100 Gbps
Trunking up to OC48/STM-16

The CBX 500 Switch with multiservice capability allows service providers to deliver ATM, Frame Relay and IP services on a single platform.

ATM, Frame Relay, and IP Switching
High Speed Frame Relay
2.5 - 5 Gbps switch capacity
10/100 Mbps Ethernet
DS1/E1 - OC12/STM-4"

There's guys like that on the Intel thread. One guy bought at like $95 or something, before it went to $101 or so. Said he's down a couple hundred thousand, something similar. Might have been 130K.
