djane, In all due respect (rant aside) Zoltan is kind of right. Also if you look at the article Chambers is discussing the ability of telecom companies to integrate a large data acquisition....completely different from CSCC/ASND. His thinking is the old stodgy slow to market behemoth environment of these "old world" companies will not be able to accept the entreprenurial environements of younger more aggressive data companies....he may be right. I think it's probably easier to bring in old stodgy technology and adapt it to new world thinking at an aggressive pace than the other way around. Hope this helps. Gary (OG)

Re -- Cisco and telcom equipment acquistions will fail... Chambers is talking from experience about his FAILED stratacom acquistion and his FAILED Granite acquistion. What Chambers is RUNNING SCARED (NOT paranoid, some of the fools on this thread dont know the difference) about is the speed with which LU brought the prominet switch to market (FASTER than the SLOW MOVING Cisco, with its IOS neckstone). And the speed with which LU integrated Livingstone and YURI's products. Stockman
