Bill, I haven't liked CPU forever, and it is hard to see much good in their future. I don't think the Dell/IBM deal is anything, at all, as they are not being hurting by the puny market share of direct sellers. They are being hurt by the lack of effective demand for PCs, in general. At this price, I would have a hard time parting with the stock. It is kind of a dead money situation. Hard to see it moving up much and it seems to be low enough not to move down much. Just think, this dog was in the high 20s in 1997.

Bill: FWIW, maybe you already read that some people now speculate GTW will buy CPU, because GTW now start to set up retail store (Country something?).

Good luck.

CPU has few friends at the moment. That happens when you keep disappointing investors.

You have to ask yourself why you bought the stock in the first place and if anything has materially changed that would cause you to take a substantially different view.
