<<The only thing that concerns me is the incredible

them in any
field that they apply themselves in.

Steven,

The above is the typical downfall of any leader in their field. This has been proven
time and time again. With that in mind, I do not have a position in Cisco.

That is dangerous as well as foolish! I have a lot of respect for Cisco but I
must ask the
Cisco people to remove their rose-colored glasses and realize that their may
be some
legitimate competition out there including COMS, BAY, CS, LU, NT, and
ASND.

Many of the above had a much later start than Cisco in the data networking field.
Cisco seems to feel they are pulling away from the competition. I feel the
competition is starting to nip that their heels.>>

not sure where this feeling of arrogance came from; if one looks at their strategy they are very much aware of competitions; listen and work very closely with customers. In each areas, target to be #1 or #2 position by either doing in-house, partnering or acquiring.
