re: From this mornings Pent II mobile story.
Why has MSFT standardized on CPQ notebooks? MSFT has purchased CPQ notebooks for internal use both in the product groups and in the field for several years now. It looks like Dell offers comparable products at about (or exactly) the same time. But when the MSFT sales guys are all using CPQ, what is the message that gets to the people they are selling to? Any thoughts?
