Many years a go, we installed ethernet over the entire campus of Denmarks
largest engineering company (FLS). At the center of it all, we had the
first Cisco AGS+ sold, fitted with all ethernet ports.
Of course at some point the CEO comes round and wants to see "that new
expensive network box" which had cost so much money.
I will never forget the look on his face when the CIO opened the rackdoor
and showed him a 6U box with a huge Cisco logo and nothing else.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
