Did anyone read the article about NT and Megsinet on ZDnet today. It says that adsl is being bypassed in favor of some other dsl technology and that service will be provided to ten US cities this coming year. I am not up on technology but I wonder if this is good or bad for ASND. Sorry but I also don't know how to paste a link.

Style, as you can see by looking at the time stamp of our post, i mentioned that several of your "News Only" post are more than six months old before you added the last one (with the "News" is old header). i am sorry that my post to you was worded so poorly, i just wanted to make the point that these articles where not new. i am sorry if i offended you or caused others to question your integrity. As to your other question, yes i did read them: and looking at those stories written 6 or 7 months ago makes it seem even clearer that while the market is growing, the only thing that is certain is that margines are being squeezed do to increased competion. It's a cryin' shame. BTW, Mory gave all the employees at the Core Switching Division (formerly known as Cascade Communications) new jackets last Friday: they had the Ascend logo embroydered on them. Nice jackets, very costly. Is this typical of what companies do if they are going to be bought out?
