"In any case - why are people worried about a possible takeover of Stupid Name Company. 3COM" And probably Intel's stock price would instantly fall so low as to give Tom Kurlak permanent guru status. Best Trading, X

Mary - Re: " Will the 49ers play the NFC Championship game in Intel Park?" I hope the Niner's play the NFC game at 3COM park. Intel is a good company but turning around a huge 3COM is not a slam dunk. I hope Intel doesn't even attempt it. Paul

Mary RE:<<In any case - why are people worried about a possible takeover of Stupid Name Company. 3COM has never been known for great management. Routers, modems, are a natural extension of the microprocessor. >> Routers and modems ar pure commodities. Intel could develop their own if they decided they needed them at a fraction of the cost of COMS. And Intel has already tried th modem business, only to discard it as a money losing albatross. It would be hubris on the highest order if they tried to purchase COMS, and the markets would not take to it kindly.
