Going out on a limb. Not! Anybody else think this guy needs a serious talking to? and a "x2" function on his calculator? SG Cowen analyst Chris Stix told clients that, based on a likely post-pricing valuation of $36 to $42 for Palm, representing a valuation of $56 to $62 for 3Com, he was raising his recommendation on 3Com to "buy" from "neutral" and setting a $60 12-month price target for the company's shares. I'll bet he has some wild parties. Joe

definitely the obstacle, as i see it. but that particular uncertainty might well be counterbalanced by getting both COMS and PALM for the price. see what i mean? i have to believe that the two are going to be awfully close in price. no matter how it gets sliced and diced, one keeps coming back to the 1 to 1 (or whatever) distribution ratio. otoh, i see the 6-9 month wait for shares as an obstacle to keeping the two stock's prices the same. thanks for your thoughts, souze :) mark
