It is the beginning of the end. A fire of a once 350 billion dollar company.

What it means for those of us who sell them... think Pontiac dealer. There will be a lot of service work for years. I expect either Avaya or Alcatel/Lucent will buy the Enterprise division.

Nortel is currently before the Canadian government begging for a bailout; like the ones many others have received.
