Hi Bruce- I'm familiar enough with Aruba's offerings and corporate culture to appreciate what you are laying down. I do believe that Cisco is finally waking up to many of their past embarrassments, as well. It will be interesting to see where things go for both companies in the days ahead.

Move from the wireless "dark side" and join us as an Aruba Networks customer. I have experienced Cisco wireless support and Aruba's wireless support. There is no comparison. Aruba products are not perfect, they are quite focused on the education sector. In my personal experience, Aruba's dedicated controller firewall and central management are superior to Cisco's offerings. Aruba is constantly working to add new features to their offering and their support is very responsive.
