for the na-sayer who for god knows why reason posting in a CPQ board bashing this
stock and thinks cpq makes crap machines...

most stock exchange depends on compaq mainframe server to do their day to day
transactions...

99% of all atm machine are connected to a compaq machine backbone...

most banks uses compaq servers or desktops...

most courier company ups, purolator, fedexpress depends on compaq servers or
desktops...

and etc...

compaq was rated #1 in help desk support last year...
compaq was rated #1 company in the world to work for...

microsoft standardize their whole enterprise with compaq machines and develop winnt
2000 & 64 bits NT on compaq servers...

department of defense of u.s uses only compaq servers (alpha) to simulate nuclear
explosion calculations...

the latest hollywood oscar winners uses only compaq servers to develope high quality 3d
images rendering in titanic and what dreams might come... etc.

The country of China had standardize Compaq alpha unix for their government application
developments...

The list goes on and on...

From my experience... hardware failure accounts for perhaps 10% of the downtime while
the rest of the 90% are usually human errors...

Think about it! How can other vendors like HP or DELL even come close to compete with
CPQ?
