We Americans love our evil corporate conspiracy theories, but I know from a
lifetime of personal experience that such theories are almost always wrong.
The real reasons are almost always the ones Jeff and I suggested, resulting
from pressure to get products out the door in an environment of costs slashed
to the bone: haste, sloppiness, carelessness, etc. I've beta tested many
products, and know from experience that the great majority of products are
shipped with *known* defects.

No conspiracy here, Cisco management doing their fiduciary responciblity to
the share holders. Don't let the low end stuff eat the high end stuff's
business.

I'd be willing to bet serious money that isn't true. As proof I point to the
fact that products are no worse now, actually better than before Cisco
acquired Linksys.

I would expect no less of them. While I don't directly own any
Cisco, I would be most upset as a stockholder to learn this was not true.

That would be very shortsighted. Way better to eat your own business than to
have someone else do it.

No offense, but this is the kind of simplistic thinking that keeps most people
from understanding how business really works.
