Hi Steven: Could I get you to respond to my #2438 on this thread. Whilst CS has an attractive product line, I am anxious to know why the margins are being squeezed and by whom. I also noted that Q4/1998 has a preannouncement of 19c/loss for write downs etc. I certainly fault the CEO for his very poor forecasting and poor media handling. In this connection review of post #2227,2228,2236,2293,2319,2365 and 2369 on this thread are of interest.The new CEO appears to be focussed on the integrated broadband highend of the market. I wonder if they are ahead of the mkt; similar to IFMX erroneous vision of a fully integrated multimedia database.

Let me just give you some insight from a "techie" that has insight on the MMAC + technology. Our company just revamped our WAN putting MMAC+'s in every office. They have an amazing upgradability, and our lifespan on this box should be at least 10 years+. I am quite satisfied with the products as are the management types that decided to go with them (and it wasn't just the free golf trips that did it) ;)
