What do you see as a fair buyout price? Relative to 12.50 (current price) it shouldn't be too bad...

cien price could be doubled or tripled one year from now. it is not to the advantage to the stockholders to have a quick sale, unless you are on the short side. small company vs big company does not guarantee that big guys always win. all big companies were small before. look at microsoft, sun, computer assoc. oracle, etc.

i see the risk and i see the opportunity.

<Baltimore Sun article seems to make it clear that this company>

a newspaper talking about high-tech especially DWDM technology. worse than no-clue analysts; looks like they've the truth is out here reporters that can program ATM switches;imo, what a joke; it's like a software engineer writing headline article for the editorial

ciena did not file this <this company is in dire trouble.>

if this is true, what this means is that the newspaper is mis-representing it and that is even more worse than the no-clue reporters
