<<DELL AND COMPAQ, THAT is all hindsights>>

True enough. But there are some lessons there that can be learned and applied to companies like Ciena. With regards to Ciena I am completely ignorant, that's why I am asking. Have they brought in the people to help manage growth or is it primarily the original people riding the wave of their technology. What is their background prior to Ciena.

I am excited at the prospect of buying a good company on the cheap but as a firm believer that management is more important than technology, even for high tech firms, I like to look at managements resumes.
