In reference to the article below. You would think some people just discovered cash flow analysis. I don't mind that so much as constantly using CPQ as an example of a traditional industry leader. They make it sound bad some how. Like the traditional industry leader is not changing and Gateway will run over them. Why does this irritate me this morning? If Gateway's model is so freaking good, why aren't they they industry leader?

(CPQ) and Hewlett-Packard." multexinvestor.com
