I'm not long or short CSCO yet, I haven't formed an opinion. I'm doing my due diligence. I came here to find some more info. I thought someone might actually talk about the conference call, earnings, etc. I found this from you (taking just the first line of each post): "As I said, eom, you are one of the guilty parties " "Take what somewhere else?" "SyncMan, I have posted numerous articles and I am as qualified as any analyst" "Gary, you should spend a little more time away from your children" "Here's the bet ... " "There are 2 chances that there is no chicanery in the books: slim and none" "Gary, the $.14 includes the tax benefit and any other accounting shenanigans" Not a whole lot of discussion about Cisco there, just argument for the sake of seeing your own words. Personally, 50 some percent growth both top and bottom line is really impressive, especially so sustained. It's a solid company. The only question in my mind is it worth the P/E? I haven't thought so before, but I'm becoming convinced. I'd rather be wrong about the price and invested in a good company. The conference call sounded pretty good to me. Many of my questions were answered by it. You have made some sweeping derogatory statements about cisco, but I haven't seen fact to back it up. The conference call was a lot of fact. If you disagree with it, spell it out. Don't whine about who offended you when. Your posts reeked of someone trying to evade the point, hence my link. You said Every time a bear with good arguments posted on this thread he/she was attacked. I haven't seen any good arguments today from the bears. I'd love to, however. It would make me feel much better to know more weak spots in a stock, because they definitely exist. Tom
