>Every day less companies need to buy their hardware as more move to the cloud.
That's not even Cisco biggest problem. Businesses still need to buy networking equipment, and there a more small datacenters than ever, but they aren't buying Cisco anymore. 10 years ago, Cisco was pretty much your number one choice, now they can't really compete. I'd be surprised if we have much Cisco equipment left in five years. It's almost like their R&D just stopped. Our next green field networking project will be completely without Cisco equipment, and we've been a Cisco partner for 15 years.
