Lynn and fooledalot: Now look what you've done! But don't panic. As long as you don't dump your CPQ shares when it gets out that the rumour was false, you should be alright with the SEC.

Has anyone else heard these rumors that Prodigy is considering buying Compaq? Can anyone elaborate on it?

From what I've heard, Prodigy wants to buy Compaq to get AV, and then spin off the Hardware/Service parts of Compaq in an IPO. This makes absolutely no sense to me. If they really want AV, why not buy it when Compaq spins it off instead of buying all of Compaq.

Is there any truth to these rumors?

Prodigy to buy Compaq? Nonsense. How can a 2 billion compnay buy one that is 26x bigger
with a market cap of 52Billion and a cash size of about 6 billion. You do not make sense!!!
Do your homework and stop bulling.
