John... Please explain ... "the main benefit to CPQ would be the ability to sell PCs indirect with Compaq name and direct with Gateway name. It seems to me that this is now possible with DEC name as well." Maybe the reason DEC has had trouble with PC's is because ... they don't listen. "Maximum profits" Profits also drive stock prices. "Supplier could be changed" ... time ... = less profits = stock trades side way for a while. Maybe none of my concerns will come try true. However, these points should be considered when investing. Has anybody looked at operarting expenses state to state. Telecom and pharmaceutical mergers have had original parties changing during negotiations. Any chance of this happening here? Loki
