t2 I agree,we've had a horrendous year and perhaps it'll end that way.Having said that,history tells us to invest in good companies with growth and earnings and we'll be enriched. Despite the so called "pundits" that inhabit this thread we are not in a prolonged bear market,in my considered opinion.This coming week should prove very interesting to all Cisco investors. As soon as Cisco regains it's momentum then all those that try and create misery will move on to another target.They travel in packs looking for a dead carcass to feast on.Cisco is not dead meat,not by a long shot.

Yeah, I agree with you - too bearish. b2b software is too strong for the internet infrastructure sector to tank. The big software companies are basically implementing a Dell-like I2 supply chain for every major industry I can think of and some very large companies like McDonalds. Its pretty much the biggest thing in software ever and the implementations are almost always hosted so its purely an internet infrastructure game. Business internet usage is supposed to be much larger than consumer so why dwell on the collapsing consumer sector? Who cares? Business automation will maintain cisco and all the core internet infrastructure plays like inktomi, etc. Storage is fine too and exodus. I'm not doing much with wireless in business automation yet though (maybe somebody else is) and graphics aren't quite there for us.
