re Dividends -
I like dividends too. While I like to see money reinvested at a good return the question really is if most companies are able to do so. Instead they blow it on acquisitions or buy back stock, usually when it is overpriced. A dividend instills much needed discipline in many cases, IMO.

There may be exceptions from this rule (BRK is one) or company in hypergrowth mode should certainly not do a payout but if we look for a company like CSCO, I think they should pay a dividend.
