<<The last 15 years was an era of microprocessors/microcomputers, next 10 to 15 years most likely will be an era of High bandwidth communications. The question though is how to select the "Intel" of communications rather then "AMD" or "Motorola". >> Vladimir, the answer is easy, Cisco. I think Cisco has broken away from the pack already. There is a saying that you don't have to get in at the beginning of a new industry, but look 5 years down the line and pick the winner. In this case, 5 years ago, there was a group of networkers (the pack), and now there is a clear winner (Cisco). BTW, it was not too late to get into Intel even as late as 1992. Or Microsoft for that matter. So it's not too late to get on the Cisco train now!
