El: Having heard my first CPQ radio ad the other day, I heard another today. It looks like they have started a campaign in the UK. Unfortunately, it is not clear that it is a CPQ ad until the very last sentence "COMPAQ for the best solutions" spoken in voice using "standard English". Prior to that sentence, the ad consists of a male voice speaking in a strong regional accent, but I have no idea what he says. I think it is supposed to be a small business man talking about problems of understanding techno-jargon. I'll have to watch out for it again.

It seems so easy to go with the flow. CPQ will hit 69 cause its stock has momentum and it will continue. Oh, no CPQ will hit 29 because of its stock has momentum the other way. Hey, how about this; I predict Intel says they can't produce enough Pentium IIIs to meet demand. AMD can't produce enough K6-3s. Oh boy, CPQ will be at 89 by April. Hey, I am just starting ahead of the crowd. :-)
