Stockman--- As stated earlier, CPQ is worth more in pieces than the whole. Probably double or more. You mentioned just one of one of the parts and potential buyers. <<"Dell can go out and buy a service organization instead of building it. Such an acquisition would take a huge premium, ....">> but from CPQs depressed price it would still be a bargain to him as DELLs inflated price makes CPQ in pieces or whole cheap to him and others..

<<Compaq is having its share of problem, but it is positioned well in all of the enterprise platforms. It also has a good service organization. It will be just a matter of time before Compaq will get its acts together and be very profitable again.>>

I agree 100%, Dell doesn't have anything close to the ProLiant business, which is robust now, but will explode over the next couple of years.
