Scumbria - Re: " Ben Rosen's comments about the profitability of Compaq's entry level products, you will understand why Compaq has taken the route they have. These two headlines might also add to your understanding."

For such a great strategy, why did the President/CEO and CFO of Compaq just get FIRED ?

If your argument is correct, Compaq should have DUMPED their high end business PC and Server business and sold only $799 K6-2 cheapo boxes - and every body would have been happy.

Why didn't they do this?
