To imply that anyone that buys CSCO is a sucker

Anybody that buys CSCO leading into earnings just for earnings sake is not of sound investment mind. However, based on past experience this is not unusual. I do not regard CSCO shareholders or employee's as suckers, however your top management does suck.

As I have posted before, I find CSCO equipment to be of the finest quality. However, I find management's decision to abandon supporting their legacy systems in order to perserve the almighty EPS is extremely short sighted, not to mention putting a bad taste in loyal customer's mouth. And now this, the switch thing, is completely absurd.

Jorj, I have never been critical of you, your products or your associates. It's the moron at the top. Him and Esrey are in a class all by themselves. The political class, which is really no class at all except to people who think like they do.

I hate to see well intentioned, hard working types like you get led down the path by a egotistical zealot that has it made either way. He's in the club, not you. Sorry about stepping on your toes, I like your posts. Good luck.

P.S. What has Ms. Estrin contributed so far? I see a lot of hype about her but I am not clear how she contributes.
