At least someone is.. We couldn't keep their -48vdc products from
dying every few months requiring a manual reboot, or hardware

Outside of that, they did a few things nobody else seemed to do, but
they had a few drawbacks such as pppd not supporting classless on
inbound dial-in connections (hopefully that's fixed now).
