>>Why is it important to you for me to say something positive about Compaq?

Its not. You're just not being consistent. In your original argument you justified PSFT not being a "dog" by saying you're up 70% each year for two years. Your basis...what you wrote...was on the sole fact of stock performance to justify why you continue to own PSFT.

I have been invested in PSFT for a little over two years. During that period of time my investment has appreciated at an annualized return of about 70%. Characterizing this company as a dog seems a little overstated, don't you think?

Well I pointed out an flaw with your argument since I know your stance on CPQ. CPQ is up 150% during this same two year period, yet you criticize CPQ heavily. I really didn't think much of it since I'm used to that kind of stuff from Dell holders. Only further explanation as to why PSFT is not a "dog" was needed on your part.
