Bill, yer old pal BLUE. Stupid me, I "invested" some profits in CPQ as a back door internet play over the past few weeks. Seeing how CPQ is as slow as HWP to make the right move at the right time, it is me who gets it in the backdoor on Monday. Is CPigQ asleep at the wheel or what? This late "earnings" warning is right up there with Lucy Painter's overnight revelation on CPQ. Remember that one? The greed of a AltaVisa spin off will get me wacked on paper on Monday. I forgot I was also trusting CPQ to know better than to hold on to or build AltaVista vs. spinning it and building it with the IPO profits. I'm holding as when hell does freeze over the AltaVisa spin off will get me my money back. You all can have my CPigQ shares then, I was only here for the AltaVista in the first place. We CPigQ holders are all sitting in a Yugo factory come opening bell on Monday. Yer pal, BLUE
