I vaguely recall that the correct English treatment is:

	[C]isco has requested that its name never be capitalized.

That being ugly (and perhaps incorrect), the best alternative may well
be to avoid using "cisco" at the beginning of a sentence (this being
similar to the best way to avoid the use of "he" or "his" as the
generic singular pronoun--recast the sentence in the plaural)
