Chambers is a broken RECORD. Keeps repeating the same stupid statement everytime someone in NW field acquires somebody. ALL CSCO does is collect some third class garbage companies from WASTE MANAGEMENT GARAGES and touts them as CSCO powered BS.

Does he think everyone else is blind and do not see what is going on. He is making a fool of himself by repeating it again and again. ASND/CSCC was a brilliant acquisition, STRATUS was a brilliant acquisition. Biggest failure was the SYNOPTICS/WELLFEET.

Even He agrees now that MORY managed ASND brilliantly. He is throwing a prayer that LU will fail. This one will haunt him. Finally I see him getting shaky..

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

is this true? this type of thinking will drive csco down the same path as Wang Lab. imo
