Bill, which would you rather own...CPQ, an all-in computer business or DELL, simply a PC-manufacturer?

The market has said for years that PC's would become commodity items. To me, the decline of component prices only supports this. CPQ is looking to create a well-rounded operation. DELL likes to buy their stock back -- it helps prop up EPS.

IMO, Dell is living on borrowed time. Sure, they will be there a long time and the stock may double again quicker than CPQ...but will the PC industry as we know be as strong?

I will continue to hold more of my money in CPQ...a little in DELL.
