A bit of clarification, please, scba. By great for CPQ do you mean the free advertising Radio Shack gets out of this? The idea that more people going into Radio Shack = more potential sales for PQ? Lynn

scba...Very interesting.... "Heard on CBS radio news, and Bloomberg radio that Linda Tripp was told by a Radio Shack employee that taping in MD was illegal. This is standard procedure for Radio Shack employees, with customers of tape recording equipment. This brought before grand jury." Had Linda stumbled into the CPQ store-in-store at Radio Shack and purchased a computer instead of a tape recorder...things would be different for us investors now. <ggg> -------------------------------------------------------------------- Has there been any news as to the success of the CPQ/Radio Shack alliance? Is this a pure consignment basis arrangement? Loki
