Gottfried.... there are lots of barbers out there....find one that likes the deal and take your clippings elsewhere.

Hlpinout make a case for some dire predictions if the merger fails. From what I have seen, those opposed to the merger are making the most noise...I hope they are walking into a bear trap.

Some one posted that Fidelity was a recent buyer of HWP and CPQ.... I don't know how many shares they bought, but they did not buy them with the idea of share price shrinkage.

Putnam funds announced that they will vote in favor of the merger, but it got almost no press. From a journalistic standpoint the story would be in the failure of the merger and the influence of Wally. If the merger goes through ...there is no story. That's why Maria B looked so shaken when the ISS announcement was not what she anticipated. She tried to question the legitimacy of ISS on this matter, and got caught short when they said that they went through this process of merger/no merger about 6000 times with other companies. They do have history on their side.
