"stillagile" from Yahoo msg board would be a much much better CEO for CPU! He was very bearish when CPU was trading 11-15, when the damn liar CEO predicted a better 3Q! Why a CPU msg board poster knows CPU better than its liar CEO, who has much more access on CPU's business information?! Onlooker has clearer head (An old Chinese sayings).

Here is the list of some of his old comments after March 5 (cannot find his good comments around Jan - Feb, when he knew CPU better than anyone else).

Here is 1 of his suggestion list posted on March 5:

1)Fee on returns -DONE
2)Sub $500- PCs -not yet
3)Sell computer packages with quality components,
ie. Sony monitors, and HP laser(or inkjet) printers.
4)Sell CPU brand computers that offer features not
found on name brand computers, like hardware modems
(not winmodems), DVD with hardware decoder cards,
Voodoo 3 video cards, and CDRW drives built in.
5)Work closely with Compaq and other PC makers
(like Radio Shack does with Compaq) to have models
with special features that are available exclusively at
CPU.
6)New management. CPU needs people who have experience
in other low margin retailing besides the computer industry.
7)Offer a discount(10% ?) on peripheral and software
purchased at the same time as a pc. alive a love
