Oh please. That's ridiculous. Lucent was saddled with debt from the AT&T spinoff, then they dug the hole even deeper with funny accounting and sales to crappy customers. Now they have 8 billion in debt. That's why they are on the verge of bankruptcy. Cisco on the other hand, has $15 billion in cash and investments, not to mention a ton of A/R. Cisco HAS NO DEBT. The worst that can happen to Cisco is they become a smaller company in terms of revenues. They are still very profitable and have tremendous margins for a manufacturing company. Cisco is VERY far from going bankrupt. They'd have to start losing money first. I think comments like this make it clear we are indeed reaching a bottom.

How about CSCO bankrupt in two years time? while i will not find cisco's share price attractive unless it is in the mid-single digits, i don't think they are a bankruptcy candidate. you might want to study some accounting fundamentals before making such statements.
