I agree on not needing to defend themselves. They have a great track record, consistent management, a good growth curve and a capable team that has executed. Regardless of what research shows, this company has delivered the goods, not as probably good as DELL or a MSFT, but great nevertheless. (sp?)

Haven't seen too many posters call CSCO a "lousy" company. Seen some questions about product robustness in certain areas, about comparisons with other kings (i.e. DELL, MFST), about Asia and Y2K, and about CSCO's key role in the ATT outage. (On the last point, Chambers admitted most of the blame in yesterday's CC.) Most agree this is a great and profitable company. However, like all companies, they need to keep their eye on the ball to maintain leadership. Pointing out weaknesses on SI is sport, and shouldn't be viewed so defensively. IMO. Gook luck getting to your 100. Bill
