Jach, I am not arguing with you that CSCO doesn't use MMC. Please RE-read my post to you. All I am saying is that sometimes supplier's problems are beyond the scope of problems that a customer might be having, as witnessed by Jabil a few quarters ago. For example, rising overhead due to rising labor costs or quality issues (I am not saying that MMC has these problems, I am just showing you an example) would take its toll an a company's earnings. Open your eyes a little, the world of hi-tech earnings is not black and white! Even I know that! JRH
