John - Despite the hype of some of the CPQ services management, the bulk of CPQ's service business is either infrastructure (installation, design services and so on) or service of existing accounts, with a lot of it being the installed base of Alpha systems. I doubt that such business is very volatile. That's what makes it hard to grow, but also makes it less sensitive to fluctuations in the market.
