Michael, for the record, I am betting the other way on cpq. My wife was a long term Tandem employee until cpq acquired them and ruined the company. EP has let his ambition get ahead of his ability in trying to integrate tdm and dec, and the stockholders have had to pay the price. Channel stuffing has become an annual event under EP, and the financial community is on to it.

Sadly, EP has taken one of the most respected franchises in the pc industry and diminished it. Until he is forced out (and I doubt if cpq can rid itself of him any other way) and replace with a ceo with integrity, cpq will continue to disappoint.

jmho,
Frank
