In his earnings preview, McWilliams wrote: "When it comes to trying to second-guess a questionable quarter for Cisco there are precious few good leading indicators. Sure, we can get clues about the quarter from the quarterly reports that have already been filed by Cisco suppliers, but Cisco is so large and diverse now that those reports fall well short of providing enough data to make more than a somewhat educated guess. However, since I'm not opposed to doing that, based on the reports I've reviewed from Cisco suppliers I think..."

McWilliams also looks at these topics:

-- What do the recent quarterly reports of Cisco's suppliers suggest about the networking giant's upcoming quarterly report?

-- Why was the programmable logic market so confusing to many pundits in 2007? Does McWilliams expect 2008 to be a solid year for Altera and Xilinx, the leaders in programmable logic?

-- Does worldwide semiconductor sales data indicate that OmniVision is likely to outperform expectations?

-- After correctly suggesting that investors should steer clear of Intersil until learning what its new CEO had to say about the company's future, is McWilliams now ready to consider an investment in the stock?
