steve I would have to say that todays price action, although CPQs is going the wrong way, is pretty good considering DELLS. Greg

If you look the price of different models, you can't but say that CPQ has played a very smart pricing strategy. The price of most models are ranged from $1500 to $2500, and one or two low end models are priced below $1000. People with money can choose to drive Mecedes or BMW, and people just need a ar to meet their basic need can chose to drive a Dodge colt. The basic idea is every one should have a computer which is affortable. This will really expand the market quick.People with money want to buy PCs with powerful functions will not save this couple of hundred dollars.Those who can not afford before will come to the market now with sub $1000 PCs. So additional market was created.
