Hi Elroy, Here's some highlights from HPQ's 3Q06 financial results: * Net revenue of $21.9 billion, up 5% year-over-year, or 6% when adjusted for the effects of currency * GAAP operating profit of $1.5 billion, or $0.48 earnings per share, up from $0.03 in the prior year period * Non-GAAP operating profit of $1.7 billion, or $0.52 earnings per share, up from $0.36 in the prior year period * Cash flow from operations of $2.6 billion * HP Board of Directors approves $6 billion share repurchase authorization Don't think GTW's contribution of $0.125B a year in added operating profits would be worth all the work and risk associated in HP buy GTW. Of course, this is my opinion, for what it's worth. Stock Bull
