Yaacov. Re: If they (Asia) try to screw up the local manufacturers........ and CPQ. Smart when it comes to that. I don't know, why the saying here: "Charity starts at home" has gone out the window. gg. Not to say that you should not practice charity but don't overlook your own well being. I knew you would say that stuff about Europe. But the young ones will wake up one day and realize that internet is the only thing, or let's say the most important thing, that will be connecting us one of these days, unless we get those cheap and fast as light year connections by spaceships. gg. Everything will be done over the net even in Europe. (well, maybe not everything. gg) You studied this stuff all your life but I guess even you know that all this study could be thrown out the window in the future in just a couple of years. The internet is here to stay and everyone will have to use it to keep up with the rest of the world, no matter how pragmatic one is. I know there is no such thing as one Europe even though they are talking about one currency. And we know the problems in that area. But who knows, maybe one day the whole world will be one country. But maybe it will have no people left in it. gg. Ok, now to something else and don't shoot me. Just before I came on here I sold every last share of my CPQ with heavy heart. I may live to regret it. But this stock has been acting very poorly over the last cpl of days while the techs were booming. I took WIZ's advise and kept my eye on CPQ. I am not a TA man but know a lot of other investors are. And this time I decided NOT to ride a stock down and since CPQ looks like it wants to go down, I SOLD. I will pick it right back up when it starts looking up again. OK, you may thank me tomorrow for selling it. Generally when I make such a drastic move, the stock will do great. Sonny
