City of San Jose and Cisco Systems

Today's news item regarding collusion between the city of San Jose and Cisco Systems makes for interesting reading. Although I am only a bystander to this story, it seems like this may not be a case of collusion. Rather, some uninformed individual or individuals must have retained Cisco's professional services group to help them out thinking that "nobody got fired for using Cisco" ... I can't believe any corporation, particularly one as business savvy as Cisco, would rig up a solution like the way the article suggests, that there was a collusion. It is interesting, however, to watch the audit report when it comes out tomorrow.
