mindmeld, For a company that is carrying around so much dead weight and debt, it is doing a tremendous job of growing earnings faster than both CSCO and NT. LU will do a $1.60/share this year, a 30+% growth rate. By not taking advantage of wariness surrounding this quarter's revenue number (which was essentially announced as a one time event last quarter), you are missing out on a solid investment opportunity. Good luck,

Brian

From everyone's favorite, James Cramer, on The Street.com's "Millennium" show this past weekend.

Asked the best single stock for the new millennium, the one stock to own to the exclusion of all others if you could only own one:

Cramer:

"It's CISCO. I'm talking a company that reinvents every time there's an important trend. This company will see the next big trend ahead of everybody else".

"I'll make a bold statement. I couldn't work for anybody the rest of my life, but if I had to work for anyone else other than Cramer-Berkowitz, I would work for Cisco! I think this company has its act together entirely. I want to be long it! I want to own it! I wear Cisco pinstripes to bed!"

Later, when they were talking millennial predictions, the lead prediction was the move away from pc's and toward mobile access. Dell was discounted as unable to reinvent itself ahead of the curve. Cisco was predicted one of the big winners - no doubt because of its demonstrated prowess at staying ahead of the rest. Cisco was the only name mentioned in that context.
