If the deal with CPQ did not exist, DEC would be $60 stock today. DAV

Well that Opp income blowout is starting to make a bit more sense: go2net.newsalert.com DEC asked to restate opp income 54M lower or 41M vs the 106M that's listed in the post I'm responding to. If 106M gave eps from opps of .65, then the new 41M would give eps from opps of .25/share (please correct me if I'm wrong). Consensus was for .43 vs DEC asking analysts to lower to about .35 I wonder if this is the "other shoe" some have mentioned. Well the street has been in a forgiving mood lately so it should be interesting. Any comments as to the significance of the restatement? Is it a minor technicality? thanks in advance, Tom
