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.
