Chilly Willy: You ask a tough one - at what point does the Q deserve to be treated as a mature gorilla?

Since I have followed the Q for years, let me give it a try.

The key is that "The next Qualcomm is Qualcomm" is not an empty slogan but a perceptive summary of the Q's past and potential.

The next Qualcomm is data - or more broadly - the wireless / internet (intranet) nexus.

As Dr J has said, he sees the future as exciting.

One of the fascinating aspects of the Q is that the deeper you dig into its opportunities and how the Q's management is approaching them, the more "exciting" in Dr J's phrase the future seems to be.

Is this a slam dunk, of course not. Are the odds good, seems so.

So in my case the only question I have today is whether having only about half my portfolio in the Q is enough.

Admire those who are more heavily in the Q because I expect they will therefore do better relatively, but I hedge by a very strong position in JDSU which I consider second only to the Q in potential.

And since I think wireless and fiberoptics are where to be, I like being strongly in the best company I have been able to find in both.

Hope this helps.

Best.
