In 1998 Cisco purchased a company called Summa Four for $116 Million,
and left them to die on the vine. It all depends on what they (Cisco )
want from the transaction. If Sipura has a part in causing a drop in
Cisco revenue due to adoption by the Open source community, then they
may well buy the company to shut it down.


Then Jan Fandrianto will just create a new VoIP adapter company and sell it to Cisco in a few years and make a ton of money three times in a row. Is this guy smart or what!

I remember those Summa Four switches well. I configured and installed them for IBM customers. They were nice pieces of hardware. Too bad Cisco let them die.


Time will tell!
