Re:Well, that depends. (Score 1)

Actually, I think the first poster may have been correct. A track record is a record of things that have happened in the past. So if we're talking about a list that extends from the distant past to the present, when it terminates, then I'd say the present tense is justified. If the poster meant to say that until this point the track record was better, then "had" is the right choice. But if he/she meant that even given this incident the record of Cisco is still better, and I think that's what he/she meant, then "has" is more gramatically accurate.. I can't believe discussing tenses on Slashdot..
