Tweaker: In comparing CPQ and Dell, the clue is return to shareholders. One year ago CPQ was a great success with $1.8 bil profits. Now CPQ is looking at vast expenses and one year before return to profitability IF all goes well, and if not then what.???? Meanwhile Dell has a chance to repeat this type of July 4th,1997 holiday:: July 1 1997 $114 July 15 1997 $141 July 30 1997 $170( 85 after split) Oct 15,1997 $ 205( 102 after split) An 80% rise. Can't do it again?? I believe they just did, from Jan till now, over 100%. That's a big slowdown from the 3700% return in the last three years, but still livable. Analysts who maintain equivalent buy ratings on Cpq and Dell are neurologically disadvantaged. Sig
