Talking to IR, Compaq said we didnot say because no one asked. Other analyists are asking, twisting the info for their use and we are trying to get what is going on. We need to ask more. Comments... This whole drop in the stock is MOSTLY a HOAX!, based on misunderstandings.

Call CPQ's comments what you will, but Wall Street PERCEIVED the comments as a warning and one that was not released in an even fashion. CPQ shoulda come forward voluntarily and reported this "softness" in the form of a company press release, thereby giving everyone the same advantage. Whether the "softeness' is significant or not, CPQ's bumbling, poorly thought out strategy, or lack thereof, lands the stock in the dog house once more. When will these devious dummies understand the value of integrity and forthright conduct? CPQ, stuck in the 30s til the cows come home! El
