Hello Paul,

The BW vs. color TV is a good analogy. Its a whole different game than it was even a year ago.

Interesting you should mention ORCL. I'm picking up shares of it for my IRA and was likewise pleased that ORCL and CPQ seemed to be getting close. Now I'm waiting for some kind of announcement that CPQ and QCOM are establishing a relationship. I do think this is coming.

Regards,

Lynn

BTW, everyone I know who owns a DELL PC is pleased with their machine. I, however, have always been very, VERY happy with my Compaqs. My latest and my first notebook, an Armada 7400 (II 366) is great and I have been more than satisfied with CPQ's technical support--they even fixed a problem caused by Hewlett Packard's scanner division technical support people [a REAL mess].
