Dave,
The CPQ projector has been on the market for about two years. Your right about it not being a top money maker.

CPQ was #1 in storage last year.

CPQ is an enterprise IT business. Almost all of the world's stock exchanges run on CPQ systems including the NYSE. CPQ also beat IBM out of some super computer contracts. The list of major IT client wins was growing before HPQ.

There is more to CPQ then PCs.

MC pulled CPQ out of a merger mess. This time he gets to start on the ground floor. The prior CPQ merger experience should pay off greatly for HPQ.

It is also wrong to think CPQ owners were thrilled about being purchased by an old bureaucratic technology company in LaLa land. <G> I was rooting for Walter, but Walter lost. Now it is time to root for the winners.
