10:14 a.m. Apr 09, 1998 Eastern

GREAT NECK, N.Y., April 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Robert M. Cohen & Co.
analyst Keith R. Bossey initiated coverage of Cabletron Systems
(NYSE: CS) with a Speculative Buy recommendation and set a 12-month
target price of $28 per share. Cabletron is one of the four largest
networking infrastructure providers in the world.

Bossey noted that two recent acquisitions (the Digital Networking
Group and Yago Systems) put the company in a better position in the
competition amongst the "Big 4" (Cisco Systems, 3Com, Bay Networks,
and Cabletron).

[Editor's note] ".....better position in the competition....."
could be inferred as meaning losing less market share and/or money.

More: Microsoft, 3Com settle palm war

The news is more significant for 3Com, because the company is
gearing up to protect its early lead against a slew of pending
products using Microsoft's operating system, said Elizabeth Cardinale,
a 3Com spokeswoman. ''We have a brand and a name to protect,'' she
said.

The skirmish over the word ''palm'' was just a dress rehearsal
for the coming battle for dominance in the small but mushrooming
market of hand-held computers, estimated to grow from about $450
million now to $1 billion in the next two years, said Ken Dulaney,
vice president of mobile computing at the Gartner Group.
