<div class="yiv213445794MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D;">Cisco is great compared to the Nortel System and a Siemens system I used to run. Much easier to manage,
</span></div>
<div class="yiv213445794MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D;"> </span></div>
<div class="yiv213445794MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D;">Now the Nortel junk system, when we replaced the Nortel phones of 25 and 32 years of usage. The Customers were dancing in the streets! All the functionality
they gained! Why would you have one button for answering and another for hang-up? I asked this to the (NOW BANKRUPT) VP of sales for Nortel, his answer was “why would you want that functionality?” Nortel who?</span></div>
<div class="yiv213445794MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D;"> </span></div>
<div class="yiv213445794MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D;">So Now I have phones that are going to last ONLY 10 to 12 years instead of 25 years, but I have phones that have 100 times the functionality. To be honest I
wish that they would only last 8, I want to refresh every 8 to 10 years.</span></div>
