CPQ is a joke because they have no credibility. Take for instance after GTW warned they came out and said that their Thanksgiving sales were fine, trying to act as if there weren't any problems out there in PC land. Then a few weeks later they warn about a HUGE billion dollar shortfall, and a more than $1 billion charge to boot! I can't recall the exact numbers because as soon as I saw they were a bunch of sandbaggers the numbers weren't important to me. I just knew I didn't want to own a company that would suck you in with hype on the wires and then warn shortly thereafter.
