As of right now cisco is leader in switching world. Juniper with introduction of there ESX switches are newbie in this industry. Nortel already in worst condition. But HP is consistent competitor of cisco in the switching world and already snatch a significant market share from cisco. Cisco is trying to give extras to beat to competition now a new announcement from cisco for extending its warranty
Effective May 1, 2009, Cisco is extending the warranty period for Cisco Catalyst 3750-E and Cisco Catalyst 3560-E series switches from the previously offered 90-day warranty to a limited lifetime warranty (LLW).
This is not the end in a seperate bullitein simlar announcement for 4500 series switch:
