Tom: "If Apple is worth 20, CPQ must be worth 100" Reply: Nonsense. I don't see what kind of technology CPQ had. Besides assembly, sales, and marketing, I hardly see any technology they could provide. If CPQ is like Microsoft, then that would be another story. Phil I hope Tom's right...I own Apple and Compaq! Also, as to what CPQ has over Apple, it has GREAT management. And if we've learned anything while holding Apple over the past 5 or 6 years (as I have), great technology means alot less in business than great management. If Pfeiffer were CEO of Apple ten years ago, Apple would be worth $300/share. JB
