Gary,

I think COMS is a buy here if you have a long term perspective. Going out about 1 to 2 years I can see a double or triple from here. I have been underwater with 3Com since October of last year and bought it with margin so I've been paying interest on it for slightly over a year. I would have sold and licked my wounds but fundamentally the company is positioned very well going forward and I still like it.

I have approximately 5 times more interest in Cisco and have owned it since 93- 94. Cisco is my largest holding and 3Com my smallest. I have had positions in 3Com off and on since 93 and they are much more volatile which makes for a great trading stock

Granted 3Com's margins are lower since they have focused on the end user business where margins are much less and competition is greater but I really like their product mix. I strongly feel that Cisco is #1 with 3Com a strong #2 position in networking. The other companies are only in nitch positions and have much greater problems succeeding going forward. I even put LU in that position! JMHO as always!

Eric
