Hi Darrell:

"West, did you notice that CPQ was now pushing Linux as well given Dell's success in this area? This is one area which analysts fail to address - the strong and up and coming success of the Linux platform and the transfer of business assets to this platform."


Yes, but who is speaking at their conference and who is on the cover of their Magazine this month? Leigh

Darrell - CPQ has 3 times DELL's share in Linux... it is DELL who is copying CPQ in this space. CPQ inherited the Linux folks from DEC, who had been big supporters since 1994. From today's article in CNET - "Compaq Computer, the quietest about its Linux enthusiasm, actually sells the most Linux computers."

But Linux is small potatoes from a revenue perspective.
