I would totally agree with you. Cisco is a wonderful organization to work with. Moreover, people at CISCO are very friendly and helpful. There are a lot of groups and discussion boards both technical, non-technical and for social groups, you can join and be a part of same mental orientation folks. I myself keep a strong passion for photography and is associated with different groups related to it within Cisco.

Very well expressed would love to meet the 3 Musketeers. :)
