Redirected from Cisco Systems
Cisco calls itself the "The Worldwide Leader in Networking for the Internet" [1] (http://newsroom.cisco.com/dlls/company_overview).
Married couple Leonard Bosack and Sandra Lerner cofounded Cisco Systems, creating "the first commercially successful router, a device that enables once-incompatible computers in far-off computer networks to communicate. In 1990 they walked away with $170 million after being booted by the professional managers the firm's venture capitalists brought in." (source: Fortune magazine (http://www.forbes.com/forbes/1997/0825/6004058a))
The company is headquartered in San Jose, California.
