I don't think that is what Charles meant. GV Seeing as I directed my query to Charles and not you I think I'll wait for Charles's explanation. Your posting to me of bearish comments regarding Cisco is a wasted effort. I place no value on your opinion. I don't care what Cisco's price is, I play it to make money not have a love affair with it. I look upon your post as just another cheap subterfuge to further your bearish stance. Please be more inventive. You only further embarrass yourself. Cheers

re: losing 2.7B on sales of 4.7B?? Come on, GV. Cisco paid severance packages on 8500 (6 months salary!) (versus NT 20,000) employee's and wrote off some huge amount of inventory that they say is useless. I thought that without these one time charges that CSCO actually made a few pennies per share. I sure don't expect it to lose a B next quarter, do you? (it's not Lucent) I'm not saying that the stock isn't "agressive". Any high tech stock deserves that label, but pretending that this quarter wasn't loaded with bad news to get it over with is a little misleading. And CSCO at 19 hopefully won't be Absurd. We'll see.
