Lucent is more voice communications equipment oriented, but is moving toward digital data routers.

Cisco is more digital / internet router oriented, but is moving to incorporate voice and video through IP.

Once upon a time, in the beginning when sort of starting out young and innocent, there were two camps; TeleCom and DataCom, and the TDM expert LU lived happily in Tele and the arcane router master csco in Data. As time passed, getting much more mature and more knowledgeable, each sees the other camp as an opportunity to expand. Same history. All imo.

Both Cisco and Lucent are in growing markets. Both are well run. Both stocks have been, and will be, very profitable investments.

Lucent has closer ties to telephone industry, while Cisco has closer ties to computer industry.

Hope this helps, PW.

P.S. CSCO seems to have more TMs than Lucent.
