Cisco is an absolute phenomenon. I'm reading "Living on the Fault Line" now, and Cisco has been doing it just right for years. An interesting little tidbit to show how big the Internet is getting. A utility analysts (Tirello) was on CNBC yesterday and stated that 13% of the electricity in the US is used by the Internet and the technology behind it. This should grow to 1/4 of all the electrical power over the next few years. Amazing - in fact so amazing I find it hard to believe. He also mentioned that there will be electrical shortages, because this demand was unanticipated, and gas turbine generators are way back ordered. Companies like AES, CPN, and DYN will benefit.
