I think LU's size gives them a little flexibility when it comes to time. I doubt LU is sweating the Nortel deal too much. As far as the price difference between Bay and Ascend, well, just because one thing is less expensive as another doesn't mean it's a better deal. I'm sure Lucent has done A LOT of DD on this deal; they're not going to get ripped off. Mark

Maybe they were waiting for their stock to appreciate, so they could buy ASND with a stronger currency. techstocks.com So much for that plan. <g> Tom
