Scumbria: Re: Compaq specifically said that their shortfall was due to their commercial PC business, which is 100% Intel based. The Wall Street Journal seems to disagree with your conclusions, and implies that part of Compaq's problems is with declining sales of non-Intel (I assume) based minicomputers: interactive.wsj.com "The profit woes suggest sales of big computers acquired through the acquisitions of Digital Equipment and Tandem Computers continue to fall, analysts say. Sales of the high-priced machines, which carry gross margins at least double that of PCs, aren't salvaging the PC margins drop. Compaq's product gross margin is expected to be about 22.5% for the quarter, similar to Dell and Gateway Inc., which don't offer minicomputers." Adam
