john ford has more. >> cisco had a rough night after its q-4 report yesterday.look, first of all, at the numbers. revenue came in at $12.41 billion, in line with expectations. earnings per share actually a penny better than expected at 52 cents, but the guidance, cisco guided to a soft q-1 revenuewise, below what analysts were looking for, and went ahead and said the global economic environment was so shaky, so inconsistent as far as their ability to see gdp and sense demand, cisco is going to go ahead and cut 5% of the workforce, 4,000 workers over the next couple of quarters, and take charges to that effect. nongap eps will be off of gap eps by 16 to 20 cents. gap eps down 16 to 20 cents because of the charges they're going to take based on the cuts. so what is the cause of the inconsistency? cisco saying, for instance, the switching business is doing pretty well. the routing business not so well. except at the edge. geographically there is also a lot of inconsistencinconsistenc. in the americas, things are going pretty well as they are in northern europe. in

john o'dell of edumnds.com is skyping with us this morning. good morning, and what evidence is out that this is a good time for ford to accelerate into nat gas?- i think it's a good time because we discovered a lot of natural gas in this country, and there's a whole lot of effort to get it out of the ground and into the fuel system to help us offset our use of gasoline. - does the u.s. have the infrastructure right now to support more vehicles running on nat gas? - yes. it doesn't have a nationwide infrastructure - there are states with no retail natural gas stations - but there are many states with many natural gas stations, and, you know, that makes for regional markets for these kinds of vehicles. california, for instance, has hundreds and hundreds of them. - are consumers ready to make the switch? - that's a little bit more difficult. the truck that ford is doing is going to cost a good $9,000 more than the base f-150. the honda civic natural gas, which is the only factory- built natural gas car available right now, costs about $5,000 to $6,000 more than the base civic. so there's a real high upfront cost of getting into natural gas vehic
