steve, Using pc at work. T1 line is nice but, It microsoft is not the same as AOL? Yea! AOL is believe it or not better then this version of MS. So I just copied this for you. It sort of summaries the ugly situation. Take a look a t what CPQ did in 3 trading days. No real negative FE currency exposure. In fact it might be a big help to bottom line. Incidentally CPQ closed close to 60.

Well, it's the NEW MATH

CPQ announces earnings that beat estimates
CPQ mgt says end of year should be great
CPQ announces split
IDC numbers show CPQ has 19.1% of the market
CPQ stock price goes from 79 to 63 in short order!!!!

Maybe not today, but I'm going to buy more sometime this week. Hope this does not turn into a full fledged panic.
