Paul, re: CSCO/INTC

With Intel's market cap of $267B and Cisco's $286B, I think it would have to be a merger of equals. It would be the world's most valuable company, with MSFT 2nd at $464B and GE's $452B 3rd.

Do you think there would be synergies? Could they combine functions to save costs? Cisco (I believe) out sources manufacturing, Intel is exceptional at manufacturing execution. These are two companies that have been very successful with a very specific approach, would they be able to adapt to each others business culture?

Interesting to speculate about. It would certainly peak the interest of the FTC and DOJ!
