elliot - RE: DEMAND to receive shares of AV when they are spun-off. Have you seen something which would lead you to believe that would not be the case?

RE:"Attention All CPQ Shareholders... Call Compaq, write to them, email them, fax them, and let them know as shareholders you DEMAND to receive shares of AV when they are spun-off. Otherwise you may get screwed! " AMEN

Elliot, Lets not jump the gun and start hounding CPQ before they have even had the opportunity to tell shareholders--and everyone else--how they plan to take AV public. Nothing that I have either heard on CNBC or read so far has altered my opinion that CPQ didnotwant to make their announcement today but were forced into making it, before they were ready, due to a leak. If anyone is feeling angry right now, please don't take it out on the powers-that-be at CPQ. The one to chase with a baseball bat is the person(s) who was prepared to release the leak--who is not necessarily a CPQ employee. Let's wait and give CPQ a chance to make their intentions public before taking any outraged shareholder actions. Lynn
