"According to industry analysts, the reduced sales of traditional switching/routing heavyweights, during this traditionally active time, is due to widespread corporate investments and trials of software defined networking (SDN) equipment, which promises to improve routing efficiency, network management, and dramatically reduce hardware costs. Industry heavyweights like Google, Amazon, Facebook, and others are already heavily invested in OpenFlow and SDN, but it seems to be taking hold on a much wider scale, and not just in ultra-massive data centers."

    And you're waffling on about bonding and multipath.

    What the hell? I read your opinion, I expressed a complementary - not contradictory - point of view. You really feel like a pissing contest about who's opinion is better or more coherently expressed? On Internet [xkcd.com], no less???

    ...

    ...

    (oh, my humble apologies sir.
    Please allow me to express how happy I am for your corrective intervention...
    I mean... such a soaring spirit, raising well above bonding and multipath, seeing... nay, scratch that, groking is the term... the socioeconomic undercurrents that shake and profoundly shape the nowadays society to announce a future that the mediocre mind can't comprehend.
    I envy you... how profitable and fulfilling must be your time spent on posting on soylentnews.)

    I'm sorry. I did feel you were attacking me for not supporting Linux. My bad.

      The "now guess what?" part sounded kind of aggressive.

      Accepted. Rereading the thread, I learned my lesson too - should avoid rhetorical question that admit a snarky interpretation (the "Guess what?" one) - while I did not intend it as an attack, I can't really fault anyone that would take it like so; my apologies for that.
