Kirk: Cisco is becoming very much like GE--very stable earnings and growth. GE has a P/E of ~30 with an earnings growth rate of ~13. Cisco has a P/E of ~50 with a growth rate of ~25. Doing a comparison, GE is higher priced than Cisco. Also keep in mind that Cisco is plowing a lot of R & D money back for future growth. A columnist, Scott Burns reiterated this information in my local newspaper today. So R & D plus earnings would make the P/E be a lot lower. Don
