Elliot: Let me give you another way to look at it. CMGI is up 9.29% today. Cpq's investment in CMGI is 3B. CPQ just made $278,700,000 today!!! And it can concentrate on its core business, AND it has contractual arrangements with CMGI which equal owning the website. And it has no drain on its cash flow. Hope this helps. :) Duke

To the best of my knowledge CPQ owns 23 million shares of CMGI. CMGI went up by $7.00, therefore CPQ assets went up by 23 X 7 = 161 Million. 161 million distributed over 1.6 billion shares of CPQ will amount to 161 X 106 divided by 1.6 X 109 approximately $0.10. Hope this helps.
