    Kevin,

    There is more than them simply hosting cloud services…they aim to revolutionize how cloud platforms are built. If you haven’t read much about the Nexus platform, check out my post on the subject.

    I’m not a cheerleader for Cisco, but I agree that people are seriously underestimating their future effect on the cloud market, both as a service provider and an infrastructure provider.

    You’re absolutely right. You should also add Cisco’s collaboration with VMware to the mix.
