HI Bosco,

It's just too bad that today, the market has finally annointed NT as one of technology pillars. I have always wondered how a CISCO meltdown would affect the market. I would say, today really shows the dangers on this 'food chain' technology investing. NT for better or for worse is now a bellweather just like the 4 horses (CSCO, EMC, SUNW, ORCL).

I still think that NT had been blasting full speed ahead to catch up and overtake LU and when it finally did, it just couldn't put on the brakes fast enough to catch its breath. Being a Canadian company, it also wasn't familiar enough with this wall street ANALysts who have been taught in grade school that 2 points connect a line and never learned anything else. SO every quarter they get their nice rulers and connect the current with the previous.

Oh they also learned to use their calculators.
