>>let INTC buy 'em!<<

Here, here! COMS should stay well away from getting involved in another "merger."

>>Sadly, I own both stocks. While I might appreciate the bump in ADPT value from a 3Com buyout, the last thing 3Com needs is to be perceived as entering yet another commodity business.<<

Sorry, hope I didn't say anything disrectful about ADPT.
Just that the Barron's article didn't seem to have anything
concrete.

Possibly when COMS comes back and has higher market cap, it
will bail out ADPT? They do seem like a quality company
though, don't they?

If they're a good company, we don't want INTC getting them,
that's for sure. INTC needs to stick with it's core business,
chips, and get away from networking. They seem to be the Kmart
of networking equipment, so far...(jmo).
