If you guys want to bash Cisco, that's your perogative, but my experience has been somewhat different.

Since we are looking at them upgrading to some new equipment, we asked Cisco if they would be willing to do something for the client, and they said yes, they are willing to credit them for existing Smartnets to the new equipment.
