It is not uncommon for companies to ignore sharp movement in the stock price when they know it is not justified. CPQ has some baggage to carry around right now and every time people even think they hear something negative they bail and CPQ suffers more than deserved. CPQ is on the mend. The next year will not be like the last year. If they post the earnings that red is guessing they will close the day earnings are announced at 54. GO RED. GO CPQ. GO AWAY JIMBO. jb

Dale......very appropriate statement about CPQ...."They pre-announced, no wait they didn't pre-announce, well they sort of pre-announced"!....The stock plummets!!! I guess that says it all. Wall street doesn't usually make mistakes in punishing a stock or applauding a stock. It, somehow, seems hard to think CPQ will rebound in the near term after this debacle. Hard to believe that management says nothing at all after stock beaten up 30+%!!! I guess I'm talkin' myself into kissing this baby goodbye!! How about a trade off for INTC? One unhappy camper......Howie
