Exactly. How else can anyone interpret when someone toots his own trumpet by saying that everyone else is a failure but me ?

Cisco has been at it with this response even after ASND/CSCC merger but that worked out fine and kicked their butt. Why doesnt he ever elude to that ? How can he ?

LU/ASND is CSCO's nightmare. I have spoken to people at CSCO a bit lower than Mr. Chambers and they quickly admit that LU/ASND is a formidable duo and may be their nemesis. Only when the numbers indicate that CSCO is losing market share to LU/ASND will Chambers make any true statements. Right now, he is trying to buy time.

<< Almost all acquisitions and mergers in our industry fail. Cisco's the only one that's been really successful in this. >>

In responding to these types of questions, he also appears to be his own company's worst enemy.
