There was a comparison with GM (I believe) and CSCO and one of the interesting points was that GM had a profit margin of 13% or some paltry sum compared to CSCO's 65%. GM's profit margin is around 3%, I believe. And, they don't make any profit on the cars that they sell in USA. I have read about how un-streamlined their production is, it is pretty sad. That is why they are losing market share all the time to Ford and Chrysler. But, we won't talk about that. I would rather talk about my beloved Cisco!! Yes, I am a Cisco long, and darn proud of it! It seems as though its correction hasn't started yet. I sure hope that I am wrong about it correcting. But, I stand by my words.... JRH
