But back to the original thought in this tread ---
I don't see the end of the Partner-type systems for some time. Even if they (Avaya/Lucent/at&t)stop producing, someone will buy the rights to produce. Look at the old Comdial stuff that King is producing new under license.
No, I don't install them, just seem to always replace them after a lightning storm. Or they just die --- after 20 years! The newest install I know of in town is 10 years old.
