Robbie, You have not been paying attention. My 20 cent estimate was pretty close to correct given 3 weeks of stuffing in the channels. Do not blame me if CPQ's financial statements are silly putty put out to fool you. ( Look at Bretsky's posts) I know it may disappoint you, but I actually made very large sum of money on DELL's ascent and also on DELL's decline. As to pride you seem to be confusing making money with looking good....not a good idea! Jimmie

<<Dell is down 30% from its highs also! Were they stuffing? >> I hope your question was a sarcastic one. Dellheads and Compaq have ALL been humbled in the last few weeks, along with a large number of other tech stocks. Why not drop the anger and the you vs us mentality, so that we can ALL profit from BOTH situations if we indeed have been handed a wonderful buying opportunity. Emotions always get in the way of good investment, and that is why I bought both yesterday for different reasons. Gene
