Jimbo,

CPQ profit margin sucks. It's probably got the lowest in the industry.

BUT there's a lot of room for improvements...easy fixes...
just have to be as ruthless as Gerstner...the cookie cutter...and that's one big reason for holding the stock.

yea sure jimbo, I bought NETP 3 times on your recommendation, what a stinker... makes CPQ look like a high flyer over the same period. Then there was LPGL, only down 30% in 3 months. Another Jimbo recommendation.

Tell me more about how hot your stock picks are...
