Actually it sounds more and more like Ascend. I really hope it's not necessary
to be competitive to release massively buggy code just to maintain the
illusion that you are the market leader in your area.
I buy and recommend cisco because it works and always works, this is starting
to look like a market share mentality. And it has me worried.
I currently have 2 2924 switches that have massive bugs in the software. This
switch look's to have been released to compete with the Bay 350 series.
Because we buy and respect cicso we ordered two. Now the are sitting on the
shelf awaiting a software release that will allow me to have any idea of what
they are doing in my network. Meanwhile I'm paying the cost of money on almost
6 grand waiting to use these gems.
