<Heard rumor that Compaq was going to buy VVUS so they could have a better hard drive.> Steven, VVUS was added to the Russell 3000 last weekend. Now if VVUS fits into the Russell 2000, the hard drive of VVUS shareholders stands to benefit. Good luck. Sergio

steven That is funny! CPQ has been pretty busy lately. Comments today by one of the upper management that he sees the break up of MSFT as a bad thing for development of the internet as well as business in general. Of course I agree with him as I own MSFT. Case in point. I do some pretty intense graphics work for my wife's business. Recently I rec. an attached email of a logo that a client wanted imprinted on their award ribbons. Only problem was that the attachment was in a different OS than window's. Now, either I'm not smart enough or there is going to be a problem with too many OS out there. I could not use the attachment thus wasted a lot of my time (clients too) in getting the thing in the proper format in order to do the work. Ken
