Today's Cisco Newsclips, in case you missed them. Cisco Systems (CSCO) CISCO SYSTEMS expects its China revenues to nearly double in each of the next two years, spurred by China's Internet boom, a senior executive said on Wednesday. "In the last few years, our revenues in China grew in the area of 70 to 80 percent," Thomas Lam, vice president and general manager of Cisco's enterprise operations, told Reuters in an interview. Lam said he expected that rate to continue or grow "possibly even faster" in the next two to three years for China, one of Cisco's fastest growing markets in Asia.
