Cisco is the "Needless Markup" of the IT industry
For those of you unfamiliar with the term, it's a play on the Neiman-Marcus luxury department store, whose high prices are legendary in the retail industry.

As a previous person said, you can buy it all (almost) at Cisco, but be prepared to pay. They thrive on needless complexity and the resulting costs to deploy and maintain their products are reminiscent of the IBM mainframe days.
