Mindmeld. Why do you assume future positive cash flows? Why do you assume that CSCO hasn't totally written down their investments - I venture to say they are at least 50% overstated. Cash and investments? Plenty of companies trade at a discount to cash value because they are burning cash like nobody's business. If CSCO doesn't lay off more people and close off some capacity, they will find themselves in that same boat. I can't believe that Sun is just finally reviewing their "no layoff" policy. This superman attitude (remember, 30-50% earnings growth after the bottom fiasco?) amongst New Economy companies has to stop NOW - game over for God's sake.
