>>>I wonder how many people thought, at the time, that ASND overpaid for CSCC and that it was a bad move.<<< Many!...considering both stocks fell 20% upon news of the aquisition.

I wonder if MRVC is working on such a module (slightly OT) which could be plugged into switches; they supply GB Ethernet modules and product to Intel under an OEM agreement, and do work in fibre; they have a subsidiary called Fibronics. Just musing... Dee Jay

Gary -- Checking in from the BARS conference. Heard Mory Ejabat yesterday and if you have any clout with the company, suggest he take a few days off. I've never heard anyone so exhausted before. And your were right when you said he wouldn't present anything new. He walked through the slides, got done 10 minutes early, and didn't take questions from the floor. Unfortunately, my badge doesn't allow me to attend Q&As, so I didn't get anything further. No sense being here if you can't attend the break-outs. At any rate, I figure if the CEO doesn't have to pump the company, the ship must be floating just fine. Obviously, no one's heard anything to change the story or the stock would show it. More later.
