Of course it should Saul (or is it Mike9798?). There has been a general networking trend to switches over routers for 3+ years, so this should not be news. Routing switches are newer. Now BAY just introduced that Accelar line of switches a few months ago, I think. When you start from zero it is easy to have any product line delivering "strong sequential growth" for a while. Was there a breakdown of what their contribution to BAY's bottom line was? Not switches in general, but the Accelars. I mean, MRVC could say the same thing about EdgeBlaster, but the total impact is trivial now.
