Hi Russ, I can understand your frustration, but don't understand why a 1.5% difference in gain between CPQ and HWP & DELL would be the straw that broke the camel's back causing you to sell. I am satisfied with a nearly 6% gain today. As investors, we need to understand that turning around the largest and oldest personal computer maker (besides IBM) takes longer than it would a start-up. The way I see it, Dell is a youngster (and HWP is also young in a way because they spun off their other divisions to make HWP a pure computer company-- it's been a while so please correct me if I am wrong, but they used to be very diversified having a scientific instrument division, etc.) CPQ is like the well-experienced executive who no one has any confidence in and wants to retire. Being around the age of one who may be considered an old exec., I want to strongly protest the market's impressions! I am for you Michael Capellas! Chris P.
