Do you really think this (the comment about HPQ orders being temporarily halted in June) had anything to do with today's decline? I doubt it. BTW, between this June action (essentially an inventory reduction), the mandatory week off for July 4, and the generally tight purse strings inside HPQ, do you think they might actually beat the street on earnings? Bob PS: I'm not sure that the order halt was the result of "problems" in integrating the companies at all. Weren't manufacturing ops shut down for July 4 week as well? Who needs chips from NatSemi if you aren't building anything?
