Cool Harold --

Call me childish, but you're the guy who started lobbing insults in my direction. I can only assume that you either agree with my points re: 3Com, or that you don't understand them. You certainly haven't shown the capacity to respond thus far. BTW - I only treat people with disrespect when they deserve it ... and you did.

At least some other folks on this thread learned a little about COMS that they didn't know before. Thread, I will really think twice about following this guy's lead to short CSCO and go long with COMS. You may all get another slap of reality when COMS announces its next Q results.

p.s. Harold, you could have done better shorting COMS this past week....

Thread: I only need to go back three months cmoparing CSCO and COMS:

CSCO:
3 mos. ago: $65
today: $100

COMS:
3 mos. ago: $35
today: $34

let's try two years:

COMS:
2 years ago: $80
today: $34

CSCO:
2 years ago: $30
today: $100

Looking forward, why do you all think CSCO has such a high valuation? Is it because every single expert on the Street falls for "hype"? There are some very real reasons that CSCO has the expectations it does. There are also very real reasons that COMS to continue to do so-so, without bigtime results. I've posted them in prior notes (in between my mean-spirited comments to that hypocrite who has the nerve to insult one's intelligence without really knowing what he's talking about) ... Shoot! There I go again. Sorry.
