Yep. I agree with you there. It's just not in character for Cisco to warn. I'm kind of hoping that they do, but what you wrote in your post is the most likely scenario. Boy, it's going to be an ugly conference call. I bet two things: 1) Chambers won't warn because he's too competitive and won't give up until he has to (in other words at the conference call), 2) if he already knows he's beaten for this quarter, he probably wants to soften the blow to shareholders by giving it the best possible spin at the conference call. He's interminable optimism is catching and may help put the best light on a really bad situation.

Anyway, I think you are right about what will happen. I'm going to buy a little bit more over the next 4 weeks as next two salary checks come in. I still think this company will survive and come out strong when the economy turns around. Good luck!
