mm,

I have been long CSCO for nearly 8 years now. The management did appear to be superior when they occupied the sweet spot. I still think they are some top managers, but superior is kind of blemished. I'm watching the market closely as I still don't think we are ready to take off in the telecom capex area. However, rather than sell now and pay large(for me) capital gains taxes, I will sell calls when it appears the bear rally begins to stall. If I'm wrong, then I have to pay the taxes. Good luck to you and all.knc

Hmmm... I didn't say they were a box maker, just generalizing broadly.

But your revenue targets provide insight. Let's say $50B company in 2005, and double again to 100B company in 2010 OK?

Based on these, what do you think rev numbers for 2001, 2002, 2003... etc should be?

John.

Where do I think Cisco will be in 5 years? They are a $25B revenue company now

but it seems they are now becoming a $17BB revenue company, if one annualizes from their latest guidance. so it will take nearly 50% growth to become that which they were.
