My rough calculation looks like CPQ will have a .12 loss on operating basis if it was to report by itself.

This is how a calculated it:

DEC was estimated to report $1.22 on 147.4 million shares or $179.8 million. The $179.8 million into CPQ's $1.53 billion shares outstanding is approx $.12 cents.

However, breakeven results on a operating basis is probably bogus to begin with since companies have a tendency to bury everything they can in the those "one time" charges that seem to appear every quarter.
