NW: That's what CPQ actually earned for Q1 98, but the original First Call estimate before CPQ warned on 3/6/98 was 37 cents. If they hadn't totally blown the quarter and say just missed by 10%, they would have come in at 33 cents - about the same as the consensus for this quarter. I hope everyone "glazes over" the facts of the comparisons and says, "Hey, CPQ is up 320% YOY!" But here in the real world (AKA the CPQ thread), I hope we know better.
