Ouch! All this negativity in the air and I am accused of nothing to contribute? Let me tell you something 3com investor, I assume you are an investor of this fine company, your company needs to go into acquisition mode again FAST! I highly suggest somebody like FORE, XYLN (great price), or NN. Somebody that can get you out of nickel and dime commodity stuff and into higher end switching where it is HOT HOT HOT! If Mr. Benhamou insists on staying in commodities (modem king) I would HIGHLY suggest buying Xircom. They kick everybodies butt with their new adapter cards. START ELIMINATING COMPETITION!!! Isnt that what the USRX deal was all about? Surely they must have learned ALOT from that one. Take the experience and do it again. It is so simple, how do you think CSCO and ASND got to be where they are? By reinventing the wheel? But no, the street perceives 3com to be acquired because Mr. B didnt get off his butt when everything was CHEAP in August. That is my WORTHLESS opinion. GOOD LUCK!!!
