Re: Cisco moves even more to china.

While it is certainly an operational issue if there are no operators left (or on the flip side, too many), I think even that is quite a stretch.

 

Perhaps the economic discussion can be completed elsewhere?

Hello Suresh,

 

  I appreciate and respect your opinion.  Please offer me that same respect in kind.  I am aware of the fact of our diverse global economy and only think as many in US do we should be fair and equitable to all parties WORLDWIDE. 

 

Respectfully yours,

Joseph

Now please go unplug all your cisco and juniper equipment.

Then open up your servers and remove all the RAM / hard disks etc that are
made in Malaysia / Taiwan etc.

Oh wait - check the labels on your clothes. The last Macy's I visited had a
whole lot of shirts / trousers / underwear that had US brand names but were
all made in Vietnam / China / Bangladesh etc. You might want to strip them
off and wear just your own, all american skin.

Sheesh. Please take it to Lou Dobbs, or if you have any more rational
arguments than these to advocate what looks like a boycott of cisco
equipment, please take it to somewhere like Dave Farber's IP .. lots of
posters there love to beat this dead horse even more than you do.
