SAN FRANCISCO - Cisco Systems CEO John Chambers said today that the company's latest quarterly numbers reinforce his observation that recession-dampened orders are improving after passing a "tipping point" this summer.
Net income for the world's No. 1 maker of computer-networking gear dropped 19 percent and sales fell 13 percent, but still topped Wall Street's forecasts.
