FWIW, there is speculation at The Zoo that is, apparently, based on some article or press release that Prince Alaweed added to his CPQ position. Per the source, whatever that may be, the Prince said that he would reveal the name of the company in which he added shares soon, saying that the merger is 30 days away. I do know that he has stated in the past that he is in favor of the merger. Maybe he bought some HWP shares so that he could vote FOR the merger? Someone was buying CPQ late in the day on Friday. Who knows????? El

CPQ perceived as negative value by: white_hunter222 (37/M/Kenya) 02/25/02 11:25 am Msg: 274196 of 274197 This was posted on the HWP board earlier today and it nicely sums up the value of CPQ. By Jim Seymour Special to TheStreet.com "On the Compaq side, there isn't much question that shareholders will vote to support the deal. This is a nice cash-out for them, and they may not get another chance to get out from under at this price".
