>the YOY numbers are against the quarter where CPQ "Stuffed the channel" <

Rude, I think the channel stuffing occurred in Q4 of 1997.

At any rate, thanks to Duke, I printed out the whole CPQ report. "Compaq's Consumer Group posted record revenue of $2 billion, up 24 percent from fourth quarter 1998 and 34% sequentially." I my opinion CPQ should be more aggressive vis-a-vis HWP, but to the extent there are problems, we should look elsewhere. I totally agree, that on a turnaround, sequential rather than YOY are what is significant.
