Well, I don't agree and I will take Chamber's opinion over yours, if you don't mind. To me, you seem like one of the "shareholders" that really has his own personal interests at heart vs. someone who really wants to see Cisco grow and prosper.

First of all, of course I have my own personal interests at heart. Why wouldn't I?

Secondly, I would love to see Cisco grow and prosper. If you could combine that with a good valuation I could make good money. That would make me very happy.

Kindof like a short who secretly wishes for war.

A short that must hope for an exogenous event won't be a short for very long. He'll go broke.

What I don't understand is that you are free to invest in any company that does not issue options or those that expense them, why don't you just move on.

Why do you think I haven't?

My fund manager believes that expensing options will kill hightech and I think that too.

And how has this fund manager performed over the past 3 years? Was he sucked in by the Bubble?

I find that a lot of people that share the stock option expensing worry are the same people that didn't worry about the absurd valuation of the market in 1999-2000. They were wrong then. And I believe they're wrong now.
