and of course there's the 3/2 wsj quote that i like to drag out every time this subject comes up...

"Benhamou dismissed speculation that 3Com would put itself up for sale
following the Palm spinoff, which is expected to be completed within about
six months. He said the company isn't for sale, and he noted that the
tax-free nature of the Palm spinoff is contingent upon 3Com's capital
structure remaining the same for two years. Any buyer of 3Com within the
next two years would be liable for billions of dollars in taxes."
