Who is Moe Guertin? I tried searching for him at the CPQ website but nothing came up. Anyone know how to do a search for CPQ personnel [if it is possible]? Figuring out who this man is might provide a clue as to the meaning of this. I don't know how you found this but I sure am looking forward to Rudedog's reply. Scratching my head over this one, Lynn

tomcat - Well you certainly don't mind dishing up the sunday morning challenges... According to a CPQ north american marketing guy who asked not to be named, CPQ has reserved a number of domain names which may be of interest to CPQ to avoid having to later compete for those names. This Moe Guertin character is apparently a contractor working with a team doing searches and closure on these names. My contact said that this just represents CPQ doing a little web due diligence, and that there are many domain names reserved which currently have no web presence. CPQ is putting up these 'reserved' sites so that people can find out if the name is reserved without having to go around the barn with the naming police.
