Howard, I finally read the HP release and I must admit the tone of the release seems to be contrary to my earlier opinion of .72 before the special charge. Nevertheless, I will reserve judgment until friday. Still, I am a long term shareholder and this quarter, even this year is a mere blimp. I already on the record why I think the stock will make money so I will not beat a dead horse. Good luck to all.

To all:

From Briefing:>>Hewlett-Packard said that it expects Q2 earnings to come in around $0.65 a share, including previously announced printer-manufacturing consolidations, the impact of the acquisition of Heartstreamn and other charges, well below the First Call estimate of $0.77 a share.<<

So my original position was correct. The earnings are .72 before the known special charge of .07. This is not the end of the world.
