Amy - Re: "Edit: You were just kidding, weren't you?" I wasn't kidding - nor was I proposing it. I just observed that CISCO could buy Intel and by virtue of its (Cisco's) reputation make this acquisition benefit Cisco shareholders AND INTEL shareholders - as well as cement Cisco as the dominant hardware manufacturer for the 21'st Internet Century. Re: "Edit #2: Cisco spends a lot on acquisitions - I think they need to put their money into another direction - where they currently lack - that's what the $5B is probably for - their other acquisitions. You had me there for a minute there. " Intel IS ANOTHER direction - CPUs, Network CPUs, Online Service Providers, CASH in THE BANK, Stocks in the bank, etc. Intel COULD be taken over and a Cisco-Intel merger could prove enormously profitable for shareholders of BOTH companies. Stranger things have happened. Paul
