Rossignol -- cash is just ONE item to look at. Check novl with nearly $5 Bil in cash and no debt. Shitty mgmt has it trading a few pennies above book and no buyers.

Well, Ros, were going to try this. This is from yahoo. I have un clic'ed "fixed font" because it runs off the page. hope that works. It shows cpq with 2.6 Bil in cash. and about .57 in "long term liabs". So far so good, but it lists about 6 bill in "other" assets and 5B in "other liabs". This could be factoring of ar's which is not so hot, BUT I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IT IS.
