Did you get CIEN on Friday's drop? And, if so, are you confident the orders were pushed back and not put on hold indefinitely? I'm only asking b/c of the LU threat. pat, I did buy on Friday. I never had a position in CIEN prior. LU's threat appears imaginary at the moment. They do not expect to ship any product until the 4th quarter of 98. I also anticipate potential customers will beta test the product before making large purchases. I am convinced the orders by WCOM were just pushed back and not placed on hold. Of course, that was one reason I took the position. The other is an anticipated announcement by Bell Atlantic to become a customer and by T. I hope I am correct<G> Glenn
