Perhaps and ASND/BAY merger is in order... (just thinking outloud)... ;)

Gary, bite your tongue. :) I currently own both these (well, actually I don't own ASND right this moment, but I likely will before the end of the day). You really know how to hit a guy where it hurts. I'm hoping BAY and ASND are taken by bigger guys, not each other.

Although the product lines may be complementary to some degree (ATM), as a shareholder, I can't see this benefitting me. Only a CSCO guy would suggest this merger. :). There, I've vented...

That said, you may very well be right. I just hope not. ASND at $10B+ is pretty expensive.

Gary

Gary, once again, good call on YURI. But, I also think an ASND/BAY combo would be ugly, ugly, ugly. I wonder what the ex-BAY engineers who moved to ASND before House took over would think? No thanks. djane
