Hear hear!!  And that's why I consider the ethics of stealing from a 
thief a bit of a puzzlement.  It isn't so much that Cisco are morons; 
it's actually much more vile: while they have the market to themselves, 
and while I'm sure 100 competitors are gearing up to compete with them, 
they would like to extract every ounce of $$blood$$ they can from their 
esteemed customers.

Which is why they, Micro$ucks, and all the local telcos like mine who 
sneer when their customers squeal about their rapacious behavior, 
someday hopefully will get their comeuppance.

In the meantime, it warms my heart to watch those licenses fly. . .
