Capt....>>> Institutions have been bailing up until Friday,, might they hold the little they have YES,, will they run back,, LOL! would you after this ass kicking?<<< May I say respectfully that you obviously don't know how Wall Street works. Put your hard feelings between 2 slices of bread and eat it for dinner. Makes for a very paltry meal. Wall Street deals in $$$, not "feelings." Granted they are not happy with CPQ's past conduct, but the future is clearly another story. They love to buy beaten down stocks in companies that have fallen from grace but that have bright futures. They watch for signs of recovery, load up, and then raise the ratings. Wall Street runs 'em up and runs 'em down making money both ways with little or no respect to "feelings." Watch CPQ take off when ML and some of the others turn on the green light.... and it will happen and it won't take years. You and I remain at odds on this one. El

<... credability LOST!> I TOTALLY disagree, better said is 'credability not regained, as yet' MC will not blow his (and our) opportunity ... it's here and it's now ... the platform/timing might not be the BEST but it/MC should be able to show/display a turnaraound-in-progress(TIP). That's a TIP of a major/powerful/technically-adept company where there are FMs awaiting just signs of a TIP before leaping in. MC from what I feel is extremely astute and (1) as a technical person he is focused on process, and (2) manager (and respected Rosen choice) is focused on results. MC'll do it for CPQ and us !!
