<this is why asnd is a takeover target today, ascend + cascade = 5 billion dollar company, and not a 10 billion dollar company. the buyer of asnd will not receive sahara, cascade, and ascend for less than what asnd traded for solo at the time cpq was thinking of going into the ras business. the acquirer of asnd now receives the products and technologies of three companies and at a discount.> at this price asnd is also potential takeover for an already established networking company that can overnight become the (#1+#2) player with 50-70% mkt share in some key areas such as FR, ATM and RAS.
