Stak, Compaq Computer Corp.'s (CPQ - news) cheapest computer is now its most profitable consumer personal computer, the Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday...This is a new twist on PC profitability. I sure didn't think that the sweet spot for profits would ever be at the bottom of the PC world lineup. This doesn't give PC makers much of an incentive to load up onthe top-of-the-line PII's though. Oh really, you think the sweet spot for profits is the bottom of the PC lineup. And you think that because CPQ told you that. CPQ made 1 cent a share in Q1 and 2 cents a share in Q2 and don't tell me that was attributable to the DEC merger because it wasn't. DELL made over a billion in profit last year and DELL continues to focus on the high end. Just because CPQ told you so doesn't make it so. Dale
