mike, that info was old. I wanted to see how much things have changed in 6 months,

Things can go from a sales order for 200 of these pc's to being shipped that day. Cpq can cross ship and drop ship electronically.
So they can by-pass the channel distribution ctr on hot product.
On hot product normal flows are faster. plus dealers do get a breifing on new prodcuts so they are set.
None of this makes a dif. when cpq says it's ready then stock pops.
I'm not convinced on

I'm checking now to see what information has reached the salesman.
Have an inquiry for 20 of them.
