"FACE-OFF: IS THE WORST OVER FOR 3COM?"

Take this week's
exploration of 3Com's
(COMS) prospects. "I
can't wait to see what insights he's got," said
BancAmerica Robertson Stephens analyst Paul Johnson
when informed his debate partner would be 3Com bear
Peter Lieu Adams of Harkness & Hill. "Let me tell you
about that guy's record," responded Adams. "He had a
Buy on the stock when it was at 50, and downgraded it
when it fell to 40."

Maybe extreme volatility just brings out the best in
people. 3Com has certainly dished up plenty of that over
the past year. Our question was whether the No. 2
networker stands to rebound after it announced it would
miss analysts' projections for earnings and revenues in its
second quarter. 3Com said that an inventory glut in its
modem business -- acquired last spring with its purchase
of U.S. Robotics -- would shave $400 million off sales and
reduce quarterly profits to four cents a share from
projections of 42 cents.
