Tom, I agree that many things in the business world are unethical, but because of that fact, companies have to be careful that they don't allow themselves to be taken advantage of. While I obviously don't know this for a fact, it seems to me that Ancor may have been used by Sun to leverage their position with Brocade, and to further their own agenda. (Whether that was to buy time to fabricate their own switch, or to cause Brocade to respond to specific pricing and feature issues.) The concern I have is that Ancor didn't see this one in advance.
