Mon Jan 15, 2007 11:26 am Subject: Apple versus Cisco...or is it Pancho?
I will be very interested to see how this ridiculous situation plays out: if indeed Cisco has lost their rights to the name, this will get real entertaining, real fast.
I particularly like this morning's bit of 'news' - that Cisco is trying to crowbar their way into the catbird seat vis-a-vis the IT(M)S, in exchange for access to a right they've (arguably) already let slip away.
Adding to the merriment: the biggest down-side for Apple here is a name-change for the unit; Cisco OTOH is poised to capture the flag for 2007 in the category of "embarrassingly bone-headed moves in full view of the public". Sad news, no doubt, for the previous place-holder, The Santa Cruz Organization.
