Zurdo,

I think shorting any company in this market has merit, however you seem to indicate that - all else being equal - CPQ is a good short. IMO you aren't looking close enough at that company. Granted they've had issues but they are well positioned in the PC, and mini-computer market with good products. Channels are supsect and perhaps not a perfect delivery model but there is a balance which they are closer to understanding than is DELL given that DELL is 100% direct. Furthermore CPQ's DEC purchase was an excellent move which will continue to allow them to build their enterprise oriented mini-computer business. I woulnd't be poo-pooing CPQ.
