This is not my views just telling what I heard. It is kind of funny how the story changes from hour to hour. I think they are all full of s--t! I'm going with my gut feeling. And that is? I will know when the time comes however if I'm wrong it was my decisions.

I agree Jim that CNBC stirring up fears about CPQ is normal for their tabloid business news. But the hit that we've taken in the last couple of weeks is almost un-paralleled as I see it. Check out a chart, go back two years. No drop is as bad as the most recent. If you go back into '91 or so you will find CPQ making a comparable fall. I hope that CPQ is telling everything that's going on. Would hate to find more bad news next week.

Re: CPQ to 17, INTC to 64 etc...... Agreed, there isn't much basis for this remark. Let's face it, the worst news on CPQ is/has been out and IMO you're seeing its base NOW. Ok, so what's it going to take to get CPQ down to a level at 18-20? Total market collapse.....and since that affects everyone, why single out CPQ, INTC and MOT? Because if CNBC had said they see the Nasdaq dropping 250 points in the next 2 months, nobody would care or listen. Hell, they can dig up a dozen dopes off the floor and make a statement like that. Nah, they're a smart bunch at CNBC.....they got their results....we're talking about it.
