Sonny-sorry your still below the weather. I have included a flu shot as part of my yearly routine now for several years, and thus far have been successful Re CPQ/AV. There has been great wailing and gnashing of teeth on the CPQ thread today regarding how and if AV shares will be distributed to CPQ share holders. It seems clear to me that 1) CPQ owns AV, and 2) the shareholders own CPQ. Thus whether they are sold on the open market, distributed to shareholders, or some combination, the value flows to the CPQ shareholders no matter what. Good day all around. Not a record jump for my portfolio, but still among my best days. Hope you perk up soon. billwot

Good Morning Sonny, I hope you feel better. What a terrific day we had yesterday in the market. It was great seeing AOL up over 8 points. Today the market begins with great news on Ebay announcing a 3 for 1 stock split last night and today's fanfare for AOL should help that stock. Microsoft just blew me away and Dell is pushing close to 90. What is you take on CPQ and the Alta Vista spinoff. I am also troubled by the delayed detail announcement until Feb 16th right before Dell is supposed to state its earnings. Now this is really suspicious??. Have a good Wednesday Frank
