Has anyone figured what the value of CPQ stock is just based on current assets held, less debt? If you take all the items listed in the Moody's note as debt, and include the figure mentioned for cash in the total assets (in other words, the most conservative construction possible) then CPQ's book value is about $11 dollars per share. So you can get shares in a multi-billion dollar, global, PROFITABLE corporation for $9 above book value. No wonder the company wants to buy back its stock.
