It's not scientific but if you read the different threads (SI, Yhoo) on CPQ you will see people from many states around the country complaining that the stores have no CPQ computers. Kinda of indicates CPQ is getting things cleaned out. Tuesday, I guess, is their big roll-out day for new product so it is good timing (CPQ gives the main speech at PC-expo).

Very interesting to note how DELL fills the mail with new catalogues at this time (I got 4 in the last 2 weeks). Very smart. Predict when the competitor's store inventory will be low and hit the customers with mail order right then.
