Philip - Re: "Should Intel buy 3COM (COMS)?"

No.

Intel wants to be the component supplier to the data communications market (plus sell systems at the low end).

Buying 3COM would put them in competition with most of their customers and potential customers.

Further, 3COM just spun off their most valuable asset - Palm computing.
