Elwood ---Heard the news about CPQ --- I held the stock for nine months from Sept 1997 to Mar 1998 with you guys . Similar issues with credibility with the DEC merger going on ---EP taking a 70 million dollar bonus in 97 and the company stock going no where . I got out at 31 after buying in at 32 nine months earlier .
I do not think the company will grow until EP is gone ---an example was EP at the time I was in the stock was still not a believer of the direct market method . He is so slow in responding to the future ( but not firing other people for their lack of foresight ) that as long as he is at the helm CPQ is rudderless . The way they announced this shortfall is another example of his lack of giving a damn about the shareholder .

Wish you the best and hope your golf game is find
