All,

Sorry for the OT but I need some objective peer opinion. We are about to
make a decision on the purchase of DWDM gear from either Cisco or Adva
Optical. Currently they are both evenly matched in our decision process.
However, with zero experience with either platform / technology, it is
hard to make an intelligent decision.

We are looking for any opinion(s) from anyone who has worked with either
one of these products/vendors and preferrably both and can give unbiased
opinons either way.

Thanks all for your help in advance... happy Labbing :-)
