I am disgusted at the way LU is behaving. 1. LU will NOT buy 3Com as a whole. If this comes to fruition (and I DO NOT expect it to) it will be like ASND's acquisition of Stratus. Keep what it needs and sell the rest. 2. We got a dividend on 9/1. 3. LU is making a STRONG play in the services area. And I think we ALL know what the margins are like there! 4. We bought a T-bit router for the core. So we now have core switching and routing capabilities. 5. McGinn is our CEO. 6. Our optical department is second to none. (Bell Labs) 7. We have long, deep personal relationships with ALL of the world's largest telcos. 8. LU is building an UNBELIEVABLE campus on the front range near Denver. This will attract and retain some of the best talent available. 9. LU encourages and supports it's engineers and scientists to develop their own pet projects. 10. LU will split again next year. I have sold all of my margin position and am very eager to see another Black Friday. I cant wait to buy LU in the 30's. I think LU is making all the right moves. THIS STOCK IS A HOLDER, NOT A TRADER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (P.S. What did you think of the Pale Ale?) GO LU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
