To All, Compaq finally admitted that they had closed their largest mfg. facility here in Bayou City for the first two weeks in April. I wondered what so many Compaq folks were doing at the race track simulcasts during the week. It's a lot less crowded now. As I've said all along, too much capacity, too much making eps by stuffing the channel. Still trying to scam investors, the co. is buying back shares. Shouldn't they save some of that cash horde for severance packages? MB
