Adam Nash from Previw Software said : <This is why in networking, Cisco is the Gorilla and Nortel is a chimp.> what kind of a sentence and meaning is this? "Nortel is a chimp" ? I was referring to the common terminology reflected in "The Gorilla Game," a fairly famous recent book on investing in the technology industry. If you don't understand the terminology, just ask. I'm not sure why you feel the need to lash out personally like this. Are you sure you know what you are saying ? Do others in Preview Software also think that way. I think Northern Telecom is a pretty big Telecom company. Are you on something tonight? sad. There is no relevent reason to introduce any reflection on my company or any of my coworkers, other than to demonstrate that you are solely interested in harassing me personally. Northern Telecom is a very big Telecom company. But that isn't really relevent to what I was pointing out. I was showing how the quote from the article you sighted supports the fact that Cisco has a margin advantage in the market based on its Gorilla status. - Adam
