Believe it Tim, Cisco is really wishing they could the way Ascend is trouncing them in the carrier and ISP market. But they missed their chance so they are resorting to sweet talk but it remains to be seen how long that will carry them.

Ascend.com hostile offer for Cisco. In an interview this afternoon, Mory Ejabat stated, "Heck, with the extra $100B we gained in market cap after adding .com to our corporate name this morning, we decided to go after Cisco before their board could meet to adopt the name Cisco.com. The market has spoken. Survival of the fittest, baby."
