<<COMS exploding upward today.. what's going on?>>

What, didn't you know?
1. We're going to war w/ Iraq and the US military decided to put a modem in every cruise missile.

2. Once Saddam capitulates, the plan is to monitor every bio / chem site w/ analog hardware connected to Palm Pilots which will feed a LAN which then communicates via V90 modems to a central network, and COMS will have a part in every piece of it.

3. After our victory, Congress will defer impeachment but place Slick Willy under house arrest. Every move will be tracked by Palm Pilots (many will be needed; do you know how ubiquitous this man is?), which will feed (via wireless) a whole new DARPA network which is being built expressly for this purpose and, you guessed it, has 3COM inside.

4. As a result of the above, revenues will quintuple next quarter. If only you lived in the good ol' USA, Steve, you'd already know this!!!
