o  3 Com represents a "safe haven" for investors 
     should market continue to slide, as stock 
     close to low end of 5-month trading range... 
     Downside risk minimal as bad news reflected 
     in price... To the contrary, at first sign 
     that business conditions are improving stock 
     likely to emerge from hibernation... 
     In other words, now might be a good time for 
     investors holding ASND (up 64.8% year to date) 
     to roll into COMS... Upside breakout from 
     trading range would leave stock well position 
     for intermediate term test of mid-to upper-40s.
