Cisco recently announced a $100 million investment in product development, service and support for 
businesses with fewer than 100 employees. Ken Presti talks to Cisco Vice President Andrew Sage about the company's focus on the small business market, which Cisco says is worth $10 billion globally. Sage outlines the three tiers of small businesses that Cisco will be targeting, and how the company plans to serve these customers through partners. The big question for Cisco is how will it be able to move down market where "economy" is the watchword, while keeping Wall Street happy?
