Piotr and Victor:

One think I never hear analysts talk about is the amount of revenues CPQ gets from its monitors; the talk is always about PCs. Yet from time to time I read, both in magazine articles and in internet new releases, how CPQ dominates the monitor market. For an example, just the other day, when CPQ announced the two, new, flat panel monitors, part of the news announcement read:

>As the leader in worldwide monitor market share...

Source: biz.yahoo.com

So, is not CPQ giving itself a nice cushion, an advantage over DELL and GTW, by its domination in the monitor market? Although PCs might be getting cheaper, monitors are getting a LOT more expensive.
