3Com Has Believers Among Analysts, Despite Earnings, Paper Says New York, March 31 (Bloomberg) -- 3Com Corp. still has some believers among analysts despite reporting earnings well below estimates for the second consecutive quarter last week, the New York Times reported in its ''Market Place'' column. Analysts who remain moderately positive say that while 3Com has some execution problems execution, it remains the most viable competitor with Cisco Systems Inc. in the computer networking market. Since 3Com is strongest where Cisco isn't -- such as adapter cards, modems and remote-access servers -- it can prosper without challenging the market leader in its core business, the paper said, citing analysts. 3Com said profit before a gain in its fiscal third quarter ended March 1 fell 95 percent, as it cut shipments to distributors to reduce inventory built up by a six-month slump in sales of modems and remote-access products. Appears Bloomerg's execution above leaves much to be desired. It's good to see you Moony. Thanx Scrapps, good to be seen. o~~~ O
