I vote that Cisco stop making poopy VPN clients and ask for Apple to help on the mac side ;-)
Also they should just release the darned thing, since every huge company in silicon valley I've ever worked for could never get access to the latest updates, especially for Macs which was a huge problem AND STILL IS.
I guess the soap opera is over. Go Apple! And how much will you bet that AAPL goes DOWN tomorrow?!
Common sense can prevail!

Therefore, all the hoopla over trademark thingy was only to generate buzz. And I think both companies agreed to it - any publicity is good publicity. It did remain in the news for quite a while. Good that they decided to end it (not solve it, it was already solved probably!)

I would normally agree and it may still result in added demand for the Apple iPhone but Apples stock has been depressed since the dispute was announced. Today when the dispute was resolved the stock jumped $3.30 but is still down almost $6 from the peak it reached moments after the iPhone announcement.
