Robbie--- Your thoughts are on target IMO. For those very reasons I have been buying down since 25 1/8. I hope to see 22 in order to load the boat. I do not think it will stay there and is unlikely it will get that low IMO but there is hope. On 4-16 it may see the low forever.... John

You really have to learn to reword things. "When they do have to scurry for cover though" sure makes it sound like your a biased boob. This stock is not where it is because of shorts. They just took advantage of the situation that presented itself. Save your remarks for the real villains in this fiasco EP and Co. If they weren't so inept the situation wouldn't of arisen in the first place.

Robbie- >>> The shorts have control of the stock right now and it will take some time to shake them out. When they do have to scurry for cover though it will only magnify the pop we will get. Nothing but bad news lately. CPQ can't even comment on the merger right now. In the next month they can make their plans clear, explain how they are making progress resolving the inventory problem, and might even have a little positive earnings surprise. Any combination of these events will send the stock higher and if all of them happen you will hear all the terrible screaming of the shorts being squeeeezed and then crushed. <<< The screams of 70 million shorts will be deafening..... THE TIDE IS TURNING HERE AND NOW...... You heard it here first..... Tech Master
