Jim, ROFLMAO !! I know it wasn't meant as a humorous post, but I had visions of an ASND 550 shipping to a customer and a LU installer fighting with ASND tech support with the customer pleading,"I want my ATM network installed !!" The cultural fits between LU and ASND are just not there. ASND is way better off on their own, continuing to grow their business, increase mrkt cap and expand via acquisition. This will take some time but ASND is the only networker that can get there on their own. I also strongly agree with Gary Korn's post. If LU buys NN, they have enough left to fill ALL their holes, not just ATM. Cheers, Peppe
