Puff Daddy, CSCO seems to be nearest rival. If you were to choose between two at these prices what would you buy? Also I did not mentioned intellectual property in the comparision. This seems to be rare opportunity for value investing.

P.D.: Let's see...if one bought 3com @22/sh during the downslide and sold at the closing today...they would have a 33% return! Don't Compare??? Why not?! Has Cisco "grown" by the same amount during the same time span...afraid not! Just a friendly reminder...look at the numbers and then decide who has the best performance! Wish you luck with Cisco...I am getting ready to short her again and place those profits in 3com...returns on both sides. It is all about making $$$ not "falling in love" with these table dancers! I don't follow the $$$ increase in either of these stocks or any other...done much better with the percentage (%) deltas. Whomever gives a better % return is all I am interested. If one can walk out the front door each morning and come home with 5-10% more than he started out with...should keep the little lady happy! HK
