Dog - Just thought I would ask: Why do you feel CPQ is stuck in this $35/share position? DELL has shown that the market is good. You would think that CPQ would follow DELL's rise. Most Wall street wags are recommending CPQ. It seems we should be pushing $50 by now. The only thing I can think of is that nobody will believe CPQ until quarterly reports.

Oh yeah - one other thing. IBM has this killer desktop 450 with 16 gigs and 128 megs ram for around $2000 due to come out Sept 15. Have you heard anything about a similar CPQ. I guess all these machines are based on the new cheap INTEL processor. Maybe you can explain the primary differences between the Pentium II and the Celeron?

rudedog:

You state:
> I have in excess of 125,000 shares of CPQ,

Unless you are a fund manager and own those shares for your investors, I would definitely consider you not a very small CPQ investor if you personally own that many shares! And heck I better convince you not to sell rather than convincing the guy who claimed to have just 24000 shares.

Regards,

Addi Jamshidi

P.S - Since we are at this I reveal my own stake in CPQ as well! I was just kidding when I said I was a small CPQ investor. In fact I do own over 100,000,000 shares! Now lets see if anyone can top my shares!

"I have in excess of 125,000 shares of CPQ, and still I post here, if only to get interesting viewpoints like yours. Hang in there! You might be surprised by who you are conversing with on these threads..."

Wait til September...you'll be half a millionaire on Compaq stock alone :)
