bilow, graphs don't show is good. the 2-1 split in 1990 was the Iraq war deal. everything went down the stock did go from 100 to 150 quick(presplit). the 1991 issue was the bad decision in not going low cost. that isn't the case now. 1991 was the only time the stk fell and that was not releasing low cost pc. Now cpq has all bases covered from the home appliance pc to high end tandems. okay the 1994 3-1 split. cpq announced at about 80-90 and it wnet to 120 and split there. back to 40..backed up in market delcine to 30-33. Then weet to 100...it announce the 5-2 at 100 and wnet to 200 presplit numbers..and has back down to 163...that's 63 points still plus what planet are you on<gggg> 63.5 points with a Asian flu market since july...that's just 4+ months. Carl, I really don't think you have been watching cpq a long time. Carl, in 1983 the everyone that went to work for cpq got stk. The janitor and lowest level employee got enough stk to be almost a millionaire now...there was a 3.75 to 1 split before they went public. What's your agenda here. Are you long Cpq???? Short CPQ....what???? Splits have been very good to cpq and I suggest you get a good histroy program and tract when they announced...not when they split with would happened. I think cpq sees that they blow away the numbers this qtr are they wouldn't have announced a split. Since I owned the stk , these numbers are burned in my memory. you are looking at chart..go get histroy that shows actual numbers. start with the last split... tell me that going up 100% in 3 months until the flu is a bad deal... and tell me that being up 63.5% now in 4+ months is a bad deal... let's do this one split at a time.. last one to back... okay..what's wrong with 63.5%???? then we'll go back to the 2-1 in 1994 THAT WAS ANNOUNCED AT ALLOT EARLIER PRICE.
