This needs the test of accuracy and truth by independent market survey. Don't believe Chambers. He is a SALESMAN, he might say that he sold you your own car.

On the other hand, I laughed my head off at Cisco's press release this afternoon about overtaking Ascend in market share in the dialup market. Sounds to me like Cisco was spooked by the Stratus deal. Sure, Cisco may have a lead in dialup if you count units shipped, but Ascend still ships a lot more ports per unit (or per rack) than anything Cisco is shipping. Let's see Cisco compare port share, or dollars. Better yet, how about ports per cubic meter? Cisco does make great routers, and always has, but Chambers is stretching further and further to try to claim he's ahead of Mory in remote access. Remember how he preached doom and gloom about Ascend buying Cascade? Maybe we should track the Cisco Shrill Index. -= Rafaella =- " From YAHOO thread.
