>>I still lean towards Siemens, or possibly Lucent. We should also consider Motorola as a possible.<< The more the merrier!! Lucent I'm very surprised you mentioned. Probably because I don't know enough and all I hear is Lucent buying Ascend or trying to collaborate with Cisco. I read the John Chambers article a few days ago, and it seems like Lucent is going to have problems merging due to it's different corporate cultures with lots of other networkers. Maybe, they'll be left with no-one except nice high-priced 3COMS which comes from a different mold than the BAYs, ASCNDs, etc. Motorola....that would be ironic...you serious?<gg> If you can't beat 'em, join 'em? What do you think about Ericsson claiming they will buy small companies...10 or so small ones. I don't see this as doable, and consider it as playing down the merger rumours. Any thoughts?
