>>David U. may be the one to comment, he is knowledgable on this stuff, more so than I.

I'm Sergeant Shultz -- I know nothing, I see nothing, I say nothing. (Now, let's see how many spring chickens ask who Sergeant Shultz is.)

My view is that instead of taking Cisco on head-on with routers, they would rather differentiate themselves by going with super-fast layer-3 switches, taking out the need for the routers. Even so, every networker seems to have an iron in all of the fires, just in case....

Judge Confronts Microsoft Witness

WASHINGTON (AP) - A federal judge confronted Microsoft's expert witness today, asking if he truly believed a court order compelled the company to distribute a broken version of the Windows software.

"It seemed absolutely clear to you that I entered an order that required that you distribute a product that would not work. That's what you're telling me?" U.S. District Judge Thomas Penfield

Jackson asked David Cole, a Microsoft vice president. "In plain English, yes," Cole replied. "We followed that order. It wasn't my place to consider the consequences of that."

Closing arguments are set for Jan. 22.

I'll bet you could hear a pin drop!
