There have been several references to CPQ having excess inventory of 200,000 systems.

Over the weekend, I heard several reports (one on Bob Brinker's show) stating that CPQ has excess inventory of $1 Billion, and that they have excess inventory equal to approximately a 100 days supply (perhaps only for the "business" market segment, which I think for them is the majority of their business).

Either way, it's probably a LOT more than 200,000 systems, could be more like 500,000 to 600,000 systems.
