Zoltan, In all due respect, I'm not sure I would argue with Mr. Fun and Chuzz when it comes to financials. These guys know their stuff. HOWEVER, you do make a good point... Everyone who follows LU knows that compared to Cisco, LU is a bloated and inefficient operation - hence your affinity. Much of LU's near term earnings have and will benefit from cutting that bloat - a source of earnings growth that will dry up. I never really considered this before. Is LU really that inefficient? What areas are they cutting to reduce costs? Clearly the easiest and quickest way to improve earnings is to cut costs but there's been literally no talk of this anywhere I can find. You've peaked my interest but I'd like to see some data. OG
