Hypester post for yahooligians. Hard part is figuring out if this has anything to do w/ Wstl or not. Hi Mark, thanks for pulling out some descent info from an obvious trash pile of a thread. I BEARLY read some of those post anymore. Anyway, someone there asked for a hyper post so Im obliged. I couldn't find the one I wanted on this thread & Id hide it too had I wrote it. Below is the title. <Slaughtering the Carriers's Cash Cow?> Its an excellent opinion & one you are very familiar with. Its by Nick Lippis & states a strong opinion of conventional carriers and RBOCs being doomed to extinction. He compares them to Digital becoming a division of CPQ. I think what he is saying will happen unless the Bells can buy some of the Clecs & such. Well worth the read but I can only find it in the hard copy. It gives some opinions (imho) as to why BA is trying to promote themselves as steve s pointed out in the number of times that BA mentioned themselves. Heres a couple others from the same issue. <Recession-Proof? According to the Data Comm 1999 Market Forecast, vendors have good reason to be bullish about the networking industry> data.com <Looking to Go the Last Mile Telecom competition is stalled over interconnect issues. Can alternative access technologies get things started again?> data.com Christmas lunch needs cooked for tomorrow so later, Dug, P.S. The BA patents Ski & MB mentioned is a long story of which Ive forgot most. To make a long story short, At&T started Cap via Bell Labs/LU. How Ba got to this point I don't even care to know but Im guessing that we see more Wstl,Paradyne,Csco in that region before we see G anything. Just my opinion & I could be very wrong. Csco has a new router out this week. Url is on the Awre thread. Looks like support @ the double bottom of 4 but Jan 1 is a looooong way off.
