Recent News on 3Com Corp. (NASDAQ:COMS)
Major technology companies seem to be launching multibillion-dollar acquisitions every other week, and those who don't join the race may be at risk of getting run over.
Hewlett-Packard Co (HPQ.N) challenged Cisco Systems Inc (CSCO.O) this week by announcing a $3 billion deal for network equipment maker 3Com (COMS.O). It came after Cisco stepped up its dealmaking and expanded into the server market to compete with HP, IBM (IBM.N) and Dell Inc (DELL.O).
"I think this is the start," said Ronald Gruia, analyst at Frost & Sullivan. "Once you have one acquisition, you can have a cascading effect."
The motivation behind this wave of dealmaking by the tech majors is to broaden product portfolios and provide for all of customers' IT needs -- from computing, security, storage and networking to online videoconferencing.
