I know. It's exciting how quickly Nortel caught up to Cisco in terms of PE. But it's obvious to everyone that they deserved comparable valuation. Now I want to see Cisco start living up to their name. Specifically, I want to see Cisco ramp their revenues in optical VERY quickly. If I don't see that, I will be VERY concerned and may reweight my portfolio, more heavily into Nortel. Let's see what happens tomorrow for starters. Good luck everyone (in this case, Cisco's good fortune will move Nortel up as well)!
