Dear Piotr: Wise Wally? Either that or Wicked Wally. Sounds like he's trying to make all the confusion/problems he has caused evaporate quickly in hope he can 'redeem' himself--and get back on the board come next election.
  "I will therefore now do everything possible to support the successful implementation of HP's acquisition of Compaq and encourage others who have shared my views in the past several months to do the same."
  Great. He turns **MANY** HP employees, shareholders, analysts, etc. against the merger, makes them anti-Carly, anti-CPQ, convinces people the merger will fail, helps HWP and CPQ stock drop to where both are. Now he wants everyone to change their minds in a flash and get excited about the merger???
  Maybe he's afraid of getting sued. Or, maybe his wife has finally gotten into his thick head just how much of THEIR money he's wasted, how much THEIR net worth has plunged thanks to him.
  Best regards,
