All I am concerned about is making money and not concerned about politics. I have always made money with DELL. I have always lost money on CPQ. The fact of the matter is that every one on this planet has lied at least once in their lifetime which makes us no different from any other.

Jim
I was cringing in my chair hearing Michael waffling painfully in front of perhaps the biggest audience imaginable, which MUST include domestic and overseas customers, suppliers, industry watchers etc. I think heads must roll in his legal dept for making the boss ($8.0 billion worth and all) come off like an uninformed and unprepared schoolboy!
Now before you jump all over me, I own a lot of DELL, (>50% of my portfolio) and have a lot of respect for the man and his machines (using a Latitude now) but that performance was absolutely pitiful and lachrymose.
I say the "handlers" should have some "ssplaining" to do..

Charles.

P.S. I am still keeping my DELL and very long too.

To the uninformed this may appear important but what has it to do with the price of the stock? The senate hearing were a bad joke.

IMO, CPQ is a good short term short. Their management has been hiding the bad news about their channel stuffing and failed BTO effort for more than a quarter.
