This is what I am thinking... Jim: I knew it, that is what happens when you piss off the 'channels' like CPQ seem to be doing.It'll come back to bite them in the ass,any gains they make with the mickey mouse direct program will fade in front of the sales they are going to lose from the channels.This is what I am thinking. Now CPQ says to the channel guys, 'sure don't worry we will pay you a commission on sales' that they refer to CPQ but 'we don't want to tell you how much it is or anything yet'. Now Dells is aggressively pursuing the pissed off channel guys to sell their systems- I think I know what the end result is going to be and I am sure you are way ahead on that one than me.<g>
