Eric, yes, I have the report, and it's not exactly what it seems (a downgrade). The report explains that Unterberg implemented a new rating system and the new one does not have a "long-term buy" rating. Do to the recent run-up in PAIR's share price and an $18 target, they figured that "NEUTRAL" was appropriate. "With our previous Long-Term Buy rating on Pairgain being eliminated, we are now instituting the newly established rating of Neutral on PairGain. The neutral rating implies a 12-month total return of less than 15%. Since PairGain is very close to our current 12-month price target of $18 per share, we are comfortable with our Neutral rating on the stock." Larry

Dain Rauscher Wessels (George Notter) MAINTAIN STRONG-BUY AGGRESSIVE RATING. 11/23/99 (9:13 am EST) We spoke with PairGain management for an update on December-quarter business trends and current progress with Avidia. December business should look much like September-period results. Management remains very encouraged by Avidia. The business should generate between $2 - $3 million in sales during December, with a ramp in the business expected next year. We continue to rate PAIR shares strong Buy-Aggressive based on the strength of the company's Avidia DSLAM story. OT: Added RTHM (Are they a PAIR customer?), QWST, ALTR, and EGRP today. Larry
