Eddie -
The original DEC deal was half cash and half stock, with the stock price pegged at 29.5. CPQ acquired $2B in cash from DEC and $2.4B in tax loss carryforward, so the cash basis was almost a wash. The stock price is about 20% under the trade price. Not sure how to really value that, but it looks like, at present valuation, the real price to CPQ was about $3.5B. But we would have to see the form of the deal to see how it all comes out.
