Jack,

I can understand your sensitivities concerning rumors.
However, I think there is a very good chance that CPQ earnings will be less than zero this quarter based on reports from the channel, reports of loss of market share in the server market, the situations in the notebook market and the workstation market. There has been a lot of fragmentary information which tends to support that conclusion.

This all will begin to come out in the next two weeks.

If true this will probably have a temporary adverse effect on DELL as well. So, I draw no benefit from this kind of development. CPQ has long range problems and they make a large target.
