People are out to get smd for the same reason they have been out to get people throughout history. He's smart, he's right, and he's moving the world forward.
People aren't out to get smd. Most people don't even know or care who smd is. Customers know and care about the results they get. Not who got them, or how many billions was spent getting them. Naturally, its up to each network provider to decide how they want to run their network and their company. If they do an adequate job, their customers will be happy, and their employer and shareholders will be happy. Different providers make different choices running their network. Some providers think they run a better network sending traffic through a few circuitous routes. Other providers think they run a better network using more direct routes. History will tell which providers made the right choice. P.S. I wonder why Mr. Doran thought I was speaking of Sprint when I mentioned complexity for complexities sake. I was actually thinking about the ATM network fiascos. I'm glad to hear talented people at multi-billion dollar companies think only the complexity needed to get the job done was used by talented people at multi-multi-billion dollar companies. -- Sean Donelan, Data Research Associates, Inc, St. Louis, MO Affiliation given for identification not representation
